Through scientific inquiry, included questioning, planning, implementing, concluding and reporting, students could improve their learning-autonomy and problem-solving abilities, and enhance their scientific literacy accomplishment. The main purpose of this study is to design learning system, named Let’s Inquiry. It provides learning scaffolds and tools which adopts learner-centered design to help the learner crossing the professional gap. Students can use the system to learn science inquiry, and it combines project-based learning to encourage the communication and collaborative learning between students. Let them finish the project together and they will enhance the studying efficiency by teamwork. In addition, the teacher understands the process of learning and teaching through the system. It helps teachers to manage multiple projects simultaneously. The teachers provide individual advice to guide those students learning on their own characteristics. The system also improves the interaction between teachers and students by responding the questions immediately.
