I agree both inquiry -based and direct instructions are needed to achieve the goal.Sometimes you need to use both and sometimes only one is needed depending on the depth of the content and learning environment as well as the learning experience of the learners.

True Megha. Our context and learners determine most of our choices about what to use :)
It's not either/or, both the strategies are equally important in the learning and teaching process.
