The aim of the current review article is to analyse the impact of the integration of technology in the teaching of natural sciences. From a methodological context, it was developed from a descriptive documentary review of a documentary population of 27 scientific articles. From the articles reviewed, it appears that the incorporation of emerging technologies in the teaching of natural sciences has generated a significant impact on the understanding of complex concepts, positioning itself as a tool to transform teaching-learning processes. Therefore, technologies such as augmented reality and virtual reality have proven to be especially effective in allowing for the interactive and immersive visualisation of abstract phenomena, such as biological processes or chemical cycles, facilitating meaningful learning. This impact is enhanced when these tools are combined with active methodologies, such as project-based learning and scientific inquiry.
