This paper discusses the term resilience from a number of different perspectives considering multiple challenges of the current time climate change, energy crisis, economic instability, natural disasters and social transformation. In this paper author digs deeper into the factors associated with resilience and different approaches to learn resilience. Psychologists have identified some of the factors that make someone resilient, among them a positive attitude, optimism, the ability to regulate emotions, and the ability to see failure as a form of helpful feedback. Even after a misfortune, blessed with such an outlook, resilient people are able to change course and soldier on. In this paper the author includes case studies with real life examples of people to be knocked down by life and come back stronger than ever. This then brings us to the question: Can resilience be measured and taught? Martin Seligman (2011) in his article on Building Resilience in The Magazine of Harvard Business Review discussed that over the years of research how we have learned not only how to distinguish those who will grow after failure from those who will collapse, but also how to build the skills of people in the latter category. Author describes the strategies and procedure for scenario based learning environment design using which it is possible to teach the techniques to foster resilience, for example, to have sense of purpose in life, to be optimistic, to develop a strong social network, to embrace change, to establish goals, to develop problem solving and self nurturance skills. Technological advancements in recent times have provided us with various opportunities to learn about the world and communicate with people all over the world. Author in this paper discusses innovative integration of ICT in the teaching and learning process for the resilient development and learning assessment.
