<![CDATA[This study aimed to examine the evolution of the curriculum in english language teaching (elt) from traditional approaches to more modern and contextual ones. Based on the reality that 21st-century learning demanded changes in teaching approaches, methods, and curriculum content, this research adopted a library research method with a qualitative approach. Data were collected from various relevant academic literature sources and were analyzed using content analysis in a descriptive-qualitative manner. The findings indicated that elt curricula had undergone significant shifts, moving from grammar-based and rote memorization models to communicative and task-based approaches that emphasized language use in real-life contexts. These changes were driven by various factors, including technological advancements, globalization, and the demands of 21st-century competencies. This study contributed by providing a historical mapping and critical analysis of elt curriculum dynamics, offering conceptual insights that could serve as a foundation for developing adaptive, relevant, and future-oriented curricula.]]>
