The research result showed that the learning achievement in political course improved significantly, the post-test scores (x̄ = 37.90, SD = 2.58) were significantly higher than the pre-test scores (x̄ = 27.10, SD = 3.51). Additionally, the obtained p-value was .000, which was less than .05 (p < .05), indicating a statistically significant improvement in learning achievement. Furthermore, the data collected from the students' satisfaction questionnaires showed that all items received in the highest ratings from the participants (Part A: Interest and Motivation; x̅ = 4.35, SD = 0.87, Part B: Engagement; x̅ = 4.37, SD = 1.00, Part C: Efficacy of inquiry method on student learning; x̅ = 4.39, SD = 0.91), and all the data of semi-structured interviews presented strongly supports for the students' satisfaction, indicating that the students were satisfied with the inquiry method.
