The study employed a qualitative action research design, where the researcher used the observational method, which is based on the Lipman’s CI checklist, to identify seven elements of CI in the classroom; namely, participation, quest for meaning, shared cognition, challenging as a procedure, deliberation, impartiality and thinking for oneself. Findings of the study showed that the philosophical inquiry pedagogy and the community of inquiry assisted in the effective teaching of CCE as students discovered a more meaningful learning experience, became more empowered in their thinking and views, and more sensitive to the current issues, paving the way to become good citizens of the nation.</p>}, number={2}, journal={IIUM Journal of Educational Studies}, author={Hussien, Suhailah and Mohd Mokhtar, Nazatul Akmar and Hashim, Rosnani}, year={2020}, month={Dec.}, pages={71–87} }
