Room 10 have been discussing and researching what some of the problems of stereotyping can be, and the impact of it as well. There are many ways that we can stereotype someone or thing. It is usually done within the first 4 seconds of meeting. It its rather scary to believe that such a short time can impact on us and our attitudes and beliefs so quickly.

Even more scary is the fact that the impact on the person we have stereotyped, can affect them and change their lives irrrepairably.

These are some of the effects that Room 10 students believe that can impact on people if they are labelled so often.

Room 10 students also believe that: We can do something about it!
