This allows students to display what they know and allows them to use writing skills. One thing a teacher can do while using this assessment method that will have a positive consequence for students is aligning it to content or knowledge.The teacher should choose a learning objective and create a question that will reflect what they want students to know. The constructive response question should be aligned with the learning objective. This allows students to communicate their knowledge in writing. Another teacher action that could help make this assessment positive is to provide students with detailed feedback on their constructive response. This means explaining to students what they did right and what could be worked on and explaining why they got the score they did. This allows students to know how they can improve and know exactly why they received a certain score. This can help students in future
