Read the case study below and choose the best possible answer to the following questions.
Michel is used to getting good grades by taking careful notes and memorizing the information for the tests. However, he is finding that his college classes are different. He has to write several response papers about the reading for his history class and has been receiving poor marks for simply paraphrasing the text and not sharing his thoughts on the subject. Michel knows that a few other students have formed a study group to discuss the reading and review each other’s response papers, but he decides not to join because he doesn’t know how he would contribute. In talking with his mother one night, he explains his frustration. “I always thought the point of history was that it was based on facts. My professor is always asking why I think something happened. It happened. Why is there no one answer?”
