| Abstract (English): | The discourse on blended learning must not take away focus on learning by concentrating explicitly on technologies. When learner-centred discussions are incorporated, these may be confined to constructivist pedagogies, as evident through the well-established community of inquiry (CoI) framework. While a few early advances argue for behaviourist pedagogies to underpin the CoI framework in particular, and a plethora of literature supports behaviourist-constructivist interplay for blended learning in general, this study pioneers the proposal of these interactions within the CoI framework for blended learning. It also challenges the prevailing stand-alone socio-constructivist pedagogical design of the CoI framework to deal with the complexities of higher education by adopting a decolonial positionality. In this light, we explain the impact of missing out on behaviourist designs on the CoI framework through the problem of epistemological untenability and that of assumed learning. Having provided the rationale for including behaviourist designs, we then emphasize the behaviouristconstructivist interactions within the framework. This discussion paper contributes to the ongoing dynamic scholarship of the CoI and encourages the research community to empirically explore the positioning of such a pedagogical design within this framework.

| Abstract (French): | Le discours sur l'apprentissage hybride ne doit pas détourner l'attention de l'apprentissage en se concentrant explicitement sur les technologies. Lorsque des discussions centrées sur la personne apprenante sont intégrées, elles peuvent se limiter à des pédagogies constructivistes, comme le montre le cadre bien établi de la communauté d'enquête (CE). Alors que quelques avancées précoces plaident en faveur des pédagogies behavioristes pour étayer le cadre de la CE en particulier, et qu'une pléthore de littérature soutient l'interaction behavioriste-constructiviste pour l'apprentissage hybride en général, cette étude est la première à proposer ces interactions dans le cadre de la CE pour l'apprentissage hybride. Elle remet également en question la conception pédagogique socioconstructiviste indépendante qui prévaut dans le cadre de la CE pour traiter les complexités de l'enseignement supérieur en adoptant une position décoloniale. Dans cette optique, nous expliquons l'impact de passer à côté des conceptions behavioristes dans le cadre de la CE à travers le problème de l'insoutenabilité épistémologique et celui de l'apprentissage présumé. Après avoir justifié l'inclusion des conceptions behavioristes, nous mettons l'accent sur les interactions behavioristes-constructivistes au sein du cadre. Cet essai contribue à la recherche dynamique en cours sur la CE et encourage la communauté de recherche à explorer empiriquement le positionnement d'une telle conception pédagogique dans ce cadre.
