This chapter investigates the supportive role of new technologies in science learning. The first part presents the theoretical underpinnings of technology- enhanced learning (TEL) in science, framing TEL in the context of current socio- cultural view of science learning as inquiry. The second part discusses the potential of TEL, which is organized around the potential of learning technologies to make science learning authentic and to provide the tools to sustain engaged participation in making sense of the physical and the natural world. Examples of learning technologies are presented and discussed.
