Abstract
The goal of this single-phase and convergent mixed methods study was to compare the differences in the effectiveness of the Community of Inquiry (CoI) presences of a community college blended block instructional model with the in-person counterpart. Data were gathered from the Community of Inquiry Survey, Blackboard LMS reports, and course evaluation surveys. The results indicate that students had a better overall experience with the blended course. The blended block model provided flexibility while achieving course goals. Further, findings reveal differences in all three CoI presences between the two course formats with more student awareness of the presences in the in-person course.

Résumé
L'objectif de cette étude utilisant des méthodes mixtes convergentes et en une seule phase était de comparer les différences dans l'efficacité des présences de la communauté d'enquête (CE) d'un modèle d'enseignement hybride en blocs d'un collège communautaire avec son homologue dans la modalité présentielle. Les données ont été recueillies à partir d’un sondage sur la communauté d'enquête, des rapports tirés du système de gestion de l’apprentissage Blackboard et des sondages d'évaluation des cours. Les résultats indiquent que les étudiants ont eu une meilleure expérience globale avec le cours hybride. Le modèle de blocs hybrides offrait de la flexibilité tout en atteignant les objectifs du cours. De plus, les résultats révèlent des différences dans les trois présences de la CE entre les deux modalités de cours, les étudiants étant plus conscients des présences dans le cours en présentiel.
