Constructed response questions (CRQ) are part of educational testing for teachers.

There are several important questions to ask yourself as you re-read your CRQ:

“What are the most important parts of this question?”

“Exactly what is this question asking me to do?”

“Is the answer stated explicitly in what I am viewing – such as a written lesson, graphs, charts, etc.?”

“Is the question asking me to connect something that I am viewing with information that I already know?”

Strategies to use in responding to these questions might include:

Highlighting or underlining key terms such as explain, design, draw, illustrate, etc.

Jotting down key points of the question, including each item that you are asked to identify/explain in your answer.

Making a list of the reasons/details that you will use to support your answers.
