To develop Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTs) and hence the quality of education imparted on students, it is necessary for a teacher to go beyond traditional methods of teaching such as classroom lectures, assignments etc. By using interactive methods of teachinglearning described in this paper along with different Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools the teaching-learning process can be made more studentcentric. In the 21st century with the development of different ICT tools the course content (resources) can be floated using online platform such as Google drive, Learning Management System Moodle, Wordpress sites etc. which enables sharing of resources among students along with traditional way of classroom lectures which gives inspiration for online and blended teaching-learning process.
