The correction of people is important to harmonize society. The correction is a process that must take place following a judgment made by one or more people. Areas in which to practice correction include: family, school, administration and community. The correction, for the students, is a secondary explanation of the previous lessons.

The correction of a person must be in accordance with the rights of the data subject.
