A chart accompanying an article in the March 21, 2001, [print] issue of Education Week on a 28-nation civics study gave an incorrect score for Switzerland. That country’s students averaged a score of 98 on the 160-point scale.

An article in the March 14 issue on the role the military is playing in overhauling Venezuela’s public schools (“Venezuela’s Plan To Aid Schools Gives Role to Military”) should have said that before the current president took office, one-tenth or more of the approximately 4 million school-age children in Venezuela were not attending school.

A version of this article appeared in the March 28, 2001 edition of Education Week
