		Indoctrination means infiltrating (drilling, inculcating etc.) concepts, attitudes, beliefs and theories into a student’s mind by passing her free and critical deliberation.
		However, the lack of this kind of teaching does not necessarily remove the danger of indoctrination, which is why I disagree with John Wilson, who insists "it is also logically necessary to the concept of indoctrination that the indoctrinated person arrives at the belief by non‑rational methods" (Wilson 1972, 19).
		This strategic teaching is a form of indoctrination (strategic teaching is not same as indoctrination), when a teacher tries to transfer teaching content to the students’ minds, treating them merely as passive objects, not as active co-subjects of the learning process.

		Indeed, they claim not only that indoctrination is inevitable in general, but that the non-evidential inculcation of the value of critical thinking is inevitable in particular.
		If this value must be indoctrinated, the students must be unable to embrace it on its merits...Either the value of critical thinking would not...be rationally supportable; or...the student would not accept the values for reasons that...support it.
		In short, Siegel's distinction between indoctrination and belief inculcation collapses because rationality is not redeemable; and with the collapse of this distinction, we are left with the inevitability of indoctrination, and the consequent impossibility of critical thinking.

	Indoctrination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Often the context in which indoctrination is criticized is one that would generally be identified by Americans as "leftist" and by Europeans as "centrist:" Noam Chomsky has been quoted saying, "For those who stubbornly seek freedom, there can be no more urgent task than to come to understand the mechanisms and practices of indoctrination.

		The Concept of Indoctrination of the RF Armed Forces Personnel outlines its main vectors: State-patriotic, military, moral, legal, etc. Understood in the broad sense, military indoctrination is a collective concept, which includes the entire range of methods and ways of training and inculcation of moral and psychological qualities in the personnel.
		In the interests of spiritual indoctrination and indoctrination as a whole, it is important to "fuse" the serviceman's ideas-related, realized and profoundly understood personal motives that determine the trend of his self-development and behavior with the process of moral and psychological training.
		To a considerable extent all of that pertains to the technological aspect of military indoctrination, because it is closely and organically linked with the combat training and all-round military proficiency.

	Indoctrination
		The educator stimulates the subject to prove what is taught, the indoctrinator commands the subject to accept unquestioningly what is taught.
		While certain truths are more difficult to prove than others, it is our individual responsibility to test everything we are taught as much as possible.
		Once students are simply expected to learn unproven statements by heart, and simply be able to write them down in order to get a good grade, for the admiration of society, education has degraded into indoctrination, and its purpose, to prepare them for life, has been defeated.

		This link between indoctrination and religious education is strengthened by the recent call from some educators to support religious indoctrination in schools.
		What is indoctrinative about the confessional approach is that it aims to close the minds of the students to other options in an uncritical manner.
		Observing that “objective” is interpreted as “not being involved at all in a subject” by the proponents of the phenomenological approach, he concludes that this approach is neither possible nor desirable since one cannot fully understand religion without a minimum level of personal interest in it.

		Probably the best example of indoctrination, partially because it is clearly anti-religious, is that typically found in Death and Dying classes.
