Abstract

The purpose of this study was to review research in information technology usage for supporting learners' reflection in science education in order to clarify recent trends. Firstly, we overviewed the previous research in science education and other neighboring academic fields, and colected the research related to information technology usage for supporting learners' reflection. Secondly, we classified these research into five categories:the four categories "Process Display", Process Prompting", "Process Modeling", "Reflective Social Discourse", which had been advocated by Lin et al. (1999), and another category that includes combinations of the categories showed in Lin et al. (1999), then we described brief overviews of each research. Finally, we discussed prospects for future research on information technology usage for supporting learners' reflection in science education.
