Inquiry versus guided discovery

guided discovery: "...instruction style by which the learners are led to discover a predetermined outcome. The predetermined goal usually consists of finding some general principle. The learners commonly develop this general principle by studying specific situations (that is, by induction)." Domin I think (1999)--having some difficulty with the citation.

I'm interested in exploring with others the difference between a guided discovery and an inquiry.
