“A Community of Inquiry is neither teacher- centered and controlled nor student-centered and controlled, but centered on and controlled by the demands of truth. Truth is absolutely essential to this method; it is only because of progress toward truth that participants are ultimately convinced of the fruitfulness of the process. Truth, however, is a hard taskmaster; it places severe restrictions on participants and puts exacting demands on the facilitator.” 

Susan Gardner – Inquiry is no Mere Conversation (or Discussion or Dialogue)

FACILITATION OF INQUIRY IS HARD WORK!
