The ICLA combines two existing approaches, the Collaborative Learning Approach (CLA) and Integrated Teaching Approach (ITA), to effectively teach listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in an integrated way. The ICLA is designed for ESL, EFL, and ENL classrooms to help learners actively participate and achieve language goals through communicative activities and enabling skills. The researchers propose the ICLA as a multidisciplinary framework applicable beyond language classrooms.

ABSTRACT
The study is an attempt to introduce contemporary multidisciplinary
pedagogical approach in the classrooms of English as a Second Language
(ESL), English as a Foreign Language (EFL), and English as a Native
Language (ENL) for the integration of basic language skills such as Listening,
Speaking, Reading, and Writing (LSRW) across the globe. English language
is a passport to achieve the learning goals in education everywhere in the
world irrespective of any culture, religion and ethnic background because it is
currently an international and most powerful language in different parts of
world along with the national languages of the different regions. Educationists,
linguists and policy makers are working on the advent of new approaches
which should be deemed fit for the effective and better cumulative
achievements in learning. The researchers worked on literature to find out
one of the best teaching approaches that can help learners to partake actively
and achieve learning goals of language skills according to the needs of
current scenario with the help of language abilities and communicative
activities under the umbrella of enabling skills through pedagogical and target
tasks. In order to get a proficient and productive teaching and learning
approach, the researchers linked two contemporary approaches which are
followed by many educationists and English teachers everywhere in the world
especially known as Collaborative Learning Approach (CLA) and Integrated
Teaching Approach (ITA) for the better and effective learning of basic
language (LSRW) skills. The researchers merged two approaches and
introduced a new approach titled as Integrated Collaborative Learning
Approach (ICLA) as a multidisciplinary approach. ICLA is not only designed
for the integration of basic language skills (LSRW) but also equally applicable
to all disciplines except ESL/EFL classrooms because ITA and CLA are
practised widely in all disciplines in the various corners of the world.
