In recent years, inquiry-based learning and collaborative learning are widely used in education. They have great effects on cultivating students' core competencies. However, most studies only focus on their individual effects. Little research has been done on how their combination helps students with teamwork and problem-solving. This study used a literature review method. It selected 10 high-quality SCI and SSCI papers. The aim was to analyze the core mechanisms and potential synergies of these two learning methods and propose a new teaching model. Literature analysis shows that inquiry-based learning can develop students' critical thinking and autonomous learning. Collaborative learning emphasizes communication and cooperation among team members. Based on this, the study proposed a new teaching framework. It includes team inquiry, role allocation and task collaboration, and reflective evaluation. The results prove that the combined teaching method can improve students' teamwork and problem-solving skills more than single methods. This study is special because it combines high-quality research to develop a new model and validates its positive effects. It provides a basis for changing educational theory and guides the application of the hybrid learning model in teaching.
