Stereotypes and gender roles that are established by the media can affect students from achieving academic success. The stereotypes and gender roles that are shown in the show The Proud Family and George Lopez imitate what the media has aroused when related to the stereotypes within ethnicity. Stereotype identities are created to accommodate those students who believe that these stereotypes are what is expected from them. Grasping the understanding of these stereotypes found in these shows can define students and how they achieve in the classroom, can allow a solution to be created to abolish the thoughts of underachieving in regards to academics within diverse students.
