If, instead, the classroom culture values finding and using suggestions for improvement, students will be able to use feedback, plan and execute steps for improvement, and, in the long run, reach further than they could if they were stuck with assignments on which they could already get an A without any new learning. It is not fair to students to present them with feedback but no opportunities to use it. Nor is it fair to present students with what seems like constructive criticism and then use it against them in a grade or final evaluation.
