Abstract
This chapter addresses the participation of Chile in IEA’s Civic Education Study (CIVED), International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) 2009, and ICCS 2016. Participation in these civic studies has influenced civic education in the country in different ways. First, it contributed to educational discourse by providing relevant evidence on students’ knowledge and attitudes. Second, it served as an input that triggered curricular revisions and modifications in the last 20 years. Third, it shaped a research community in the field. Key to these contributions have been both the results of the studies and their assessment frameworks. These elements set a common language in educational discourse and provided evidence that serves as a foundation for further discussions.
