Seminar of English Teachers:
ELT with NEP & Multidisciplinary Learning Seminar

The seminar highlighted the importance of several key skills projected to be essential by 2025.
These skills include analytical thinking and innovation, active learning and learning strategies,
complex problem solving, critical thinking, creativity, originality, and initiative, leadership and
social influence, technology use, monitoring, and control, technology design and programming,

resilience, stress tolerance, and flexibility, and reasoning, problem solving, and ideation.
Integrating these skills into educational curricula is crucial to prepare students for the rapidly
evolving future.

During the seminar, the top 10 risks in educational planning were identified, focusing on their
impact and severity over 2-year and 10-year periods. These risks include the cost of living crisis,

natural disasters and extreme weather events, geoeconomic condonation, failure to mitigate
climate changes, erosion of social cohesion and societal polarization, failure of climate-change
adaptation, biodiversity loss and ecosystem collapse, large-scale involuntary migration.
Addressing these risks is vital to create a conducive learning environment. Strategies should
encompass climate change education, promoting social cohesion, enhancing disaster

preparedness, integrating multidisciplinary approaches, and fostering resilience among students.
Proactive measures can help education systems adapt to changing circumstances, provide
inclusive learning environments, and equip students with the necessary skills to overcome future
challenges.

The ELT with NEP & Multidisciplinary Learning seminar provided valuable insights into effective

English language teaching techniques aligned with NEP, enhancing language skills, critical
thinking, and problem-solving abilities. The discussion on the top 10 skills for 2025 emphasized
their importance in preparing individuals for the future. The seminar served as a platform for
sharing knowledge and best practices in English language teaching and multidisciplinary
education, contributing to participants' professional development. By incorporating innovative

essential skills in students and create a conducive learning environment. We express sincere
gratitude to the organizers, speaker, and participants for their valuable contributions, enriching the
