Which one of the following illustrates how classroom assessments can affect students' epistemic beliefs?
A) Because Geraldine consistently receives low marks on assignments in her history class, she is convinced that her teacher is "out to get me."
B) Susan thinks that "art appreciation" means memorizing the names of paintings and the artists who painted them because every test in her art appreciation class asks her to label a series of paintings and identify the painter of each one.
C) Martin has heard rumors that Mr. Stewart's tests are "really picky," so he is very anxious when he prepares for his first test in Mr. Stewart's class.
