Answer 2
Education is an experimental, mysterious, and playful process that engages an individual in knowledge and the ideas of the world. The doors of intellectual experience are opened and the learners are equipped with tools that are required to interpret and analyze the relevant information. Indoctrination, on the other hand, is an approach that instills in an individual, a set of habits and beliefs aligned with a political agenda or an ideology. Education opens an individual’s mind while indoctrination narrows it.
Difference between indoctrination and socialization
Socialization is a process in which a person learns to become able to live in and adapt to the society. This ongoing process starts from the birth of an individual and continues until his death. Although, the process of indoctrination is not a lifelong process in which a set of beliefs and rules are imposed on the individual whether he approves it or not.

Intercultural education is a global necessity, a specialized form of education that puts individuals and their cultures in positions of differential treatment, but at the same time they are in positions of equality. It deals with the educational process through the vision of cultural diversity and is focused on cultural interaction phenomena (people, cultures, religions, speakers of different languages, people who have different views and opinions, etc.). The values derived from intercultural education (tolerance, freedom, openness, acceptance of differences, understanding of diversity, pluralism, cooperation) are built into the personalities of the educated subjects through sustained and consistent (systematic) efforts. Intercultural education is a dimension of the new education, which focuses on the values mentioned above.

Answer 3
Ethnocentrism is the act of making judgments about another culture on the basis of preconceptions found in the standards and values of one’s own culture. The process of indoctrination creates ethnocentrism as it closes the mind and the ability to think open-mindedly, and this ethnocentrism leads to nationalism, tribalism, and other strong patriotic feelings. It challenges the self-identity of an individual, and induces intense emotions in him. The individual becomes greedy and non-negotiating. It also leads to prejudice and violence within the society and creates problems.
Answer 4
The three important values that motivate me are change, equality, and self-help control. The concept of equality is very important to Americans. They believe that every individual is equal to the other. However, many foreigners complain that the attitude of Americans towards equality is biased. They are racists who consider white men superior to the black ones. Change in the society and people’s lives is easily accepted by Americans. Every passing day brings a new revolution in the lives and work of people. They accept these changes positively as they seek to become a better person with the passing time. The concept of self-help is extremely important in the lives of Americans. They believe that self-help not only helps in the growth of an individual, but also in the development and prosperity of the society, and a healthy democracy.
Answer 5
In the multicultural environment, it is imperative for a person to give significance to other people’s cultural values and respect them while posing the best of character of one’s own culture. People mainly carry their religious, historical, geographical and social beliefs. When people from different cultures live together, the communication gap is due to the burden people carry and not shed off the personal agenda.
Answer 6
A person’s values cause stress if expectations are not met as people expect others to live according to their values and when a person tends to follow his own vales, it causes the other person to say that his expectations are not met.
Answer 7
We should not view others through our lens of judgment as the behaviors and values of everyone are according to their own culture and beliefs. If we start accepting that everyone has his own values, the concept of doctrinarian would be finished.
