Constructed Response

What is Constructed Response?

  • Assessment items that ask students to apply knowledge, skills and critical thinking abilities to real-world, standards-driven performance tasks. 
  • Constructed responses require students to "construct" or develop their own answers without the benefit of any suggestions or choices.  Students generate and intertwine their ideas into a response that is directly related to the item.  Students generate a response in the form of a few sentences, a graphic organizer, or a simple drawing/diagram with explanation. 
  • Constructed responses can be either short or extended
