= Food for thought and action...//Talk does not cook rice.// (Chinese proverb) =  //If being an educator in the 21st century centrally involves the capacity to inquire into professional practice, then the notion of inquiry is not a project or the latest fad. **It is a way of professional being**. The question that needs to be asked is not whether educators should be inquirers into professional practice, but how they can improve the learning and wellbeing of children and students by continuing to build their inquiry capacities throughout their professional lives. // (Reid, 2004, p. 3)
