Abstract

In the Society 5.0 era, human connections are profoundly influenced by technological advancements, particularly social media. This study explores the impact of these changes on social bonds, emphasizing the balance between connectivity and relationship quality. Using a descriptive survey method, data were gathered from 147 participants through a structured questionnaire. The findings reveal that while digital platforms enhance communication frequency, facilitate long-distance relationships, and broaden cultural understanding, they also present challenges such as reduced face-to-face interactions, dependency on digital tools, and superficial connections. Participants widely recognized the role of technology in creating opportunities for new relationships and sustaining existing ones across distances. However, they also emphasized the enduring value of physical interactions for emotional depth and trust. Moderate levels of agreement regarding digital distractions and technology's role in conflict resolution reflect the complexities of navigating these tools in everyday relationships. The dual nature of technology—as both a connector and a potential disruptor—highlights the need for strategies to promote mindful and balanced usage. This study underscores the importance of fostering digital literacy and encouraging offline engagement to preserve meaningful social bonds. By addressing these dynamics, Society 5.0 can strengthen inclusivity, empathy, and cohesion, ensuring that technological progress aligns with human well-being and authentic connections.

Abstract

The project-based learning (PjBL) model with hybrid mode supports higher order thinking skills (HOTS) preparing students to become adaptive, creative, and competent educators in the 21st century. This study aims to analyze the effect of PjBL model with a hybrid mode on HOTS and social attitudes of prospective physics teacher students. This study was conducted on 5th semester students of the physics education study program, University of Mataram, who took the physics curriculum review course. The research design used was a quasi-experiment with a posttest only control group design. The study population included 75 students from class 5A, class 5B, and class 5C in the 2024/2025 academic year. The research subjects were divided into two groups, namely the experimental class (5A) and the control class (5C). The instruments used included a HOTS test and a social attitude questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using one-way Manova statistics. The results showed a significant difference in students' HOTS between the experimental class and the control class with an average HOTS of students in the experimental class of 81, higher than the control class which obtained an average score of 72. However, there was no significant difference in students' social attitudes between the two classes with an average score of social attitudes in the experimental class of 83 and in the control class of 82. This finding indicates that the PjBL model with a hybrid mode is effective in improving students' HOTS, but has little effect on the development of students' social attitudes.
