Our world is changing fast and education is a very powerful instrument that can equip the students to face the global challenges that 21st century development brings along with itself. As John Dewey has rightly said, “...if we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow.” Technology has affected all the fields and 21st century brings with it the need to not only solve complex and abstract problems but also think of creative solutions to environmental issues. Therefore, to meet 21st century expectations, educators need to do away with the traditional methods of standardized teaching and advocate teaching methods that can enable learners to adapt to the changing requirements of a fast transforming world. There is a great need to improve the quality of education and equip learners to adapt to these changes and more. Innovative teaching and learning methodologies is the only way to enhance the quality of our education. Only through innovative techniques, the teachers can provide student-centric learning environment that will make learning process interesting as well as understandable to the young learners. Tripura, the 3rd smallest state in India in terms of size and Agartala is its Capital. This paper aims to analyze the current status of teaching and learning methods adopted by teachers in Agartala, Tripura and also to identify innovative teaching and learning methods that can be attempted in imparting knowledge to the learners.
