Concept of Learning in the Era of Society 5.0: Integration of Technology, Humanism, and Educational Transformation

Abstract

Today's global developments mark a shift toward the era of Society 5.0, a concept of society that integrates intelligent technology with humanistic values. This transformation has significant implications for the world of education, particularly in shaping a new paradigm for the concept of learning. This study aims to analyse the concept of learning in the Society 5.0 era through a qualitative approach with a literature study method. Data were collected from academic literature, journal articles, and relevant educational theories, then analysed using content analysis techniques. The results of the study show that the concept of learning in the Society 5.0 era is an integration of three main approaches: constructivism, connectivism, and humanistic learning. Constructivist theory emphasises the active involvement of students in building knowledge, connectivism explains the importance of digital networks as a source of learning, while humanistic learning ensures a balance between technological sophistication and human values. The implications of this study include the need for an adaptive curriculum, as well as blended learning and project-based learning models, and a shift in the role of teachers to facilitators and mentors. Thus, the concept of learning in the Society 5.0 era can be formulated as a learning process that is both technological and human-centred, where technology serves as a means of human empowerment. This article makes a theoretical contribution to the development of 21st-century education and offers practical guidance for formulating education policies that address global demands.
