The attached is a message posted by Jamie, a "student" in an online introductory psychology class (the instructor has not heard from her previously on this issue). How might one respond to Jamie in order to improve her level of self-efficacy and how might the theories of self-efficacy support the approach. (see attached message from Jamie).

Jamie: I am so confused by this class. I read and reread the assignments, but I just don't get it. I really don't think the instructor likes me, (he or she) just isn't giving clear instructions, and the book is so hard. Does anyone else feel this way?
