ABSTRACT
This article examines work related to the development and validation of a measurement tool for the Community of Inquiry (CoI) framework in online settings. The framework consists of three elements: social presence, teaching presence, and cognitive presence, each of which is integral to the instrument. The 34 item instrument, and thus framework, was tested after being administered at four institutions in the Summer of 2007. The article also includes a discussion of implications for the future use of the CoI survey and the CoI framework itself.| Keywords | CoI Survey · measurement · presences |

| Finding | "Factor analysis demonstrates the clustering of sub-elements within the model, verifying the theoretical structure proposed by Garrison, et. al (2000). The objective of this research was to explicate all three presences and to test the validity and reliability of a measurement tool for the community of inquiry framework." |
