Abstract

Education and the Society 5.0 era are interconnected through technological advancements that influence the role of teachers, teaching methods, mindsets, and educational media, particularly in mathematics education. The purpose of this study is to analyze the implementation and impact of technology in mathematics education in the Society 5.0 era. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review design to collect, analyze, and disseminate previous research related to the topic. The findings highlight several pioneers in mathematics education in the Society 5.0 era, such as the importance of integrating technology, technology-based learning approaches, technological tools in mathematics education, digital collaboration and communication, interactive technology, and real-time learning technology. Furthermore, both positive and negative impacts of implementing these technologies were found. Based on the research results, it is recommended that educational institutions integrate technology into mathematics education through teacher training, providing supporting infrastructure, and designing curricula that align with these advancements to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and problem-solving skills of students in facing the challenges of the Society 5.0 era.

Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to develop and evaluate a comprehensive mind-body wellness program that integrates Zumba exercise and mindfulness training to optimize fat metabolism and enhance mental health outcomes in sedentary adults. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed with 60 adult participants (aged 20-40) randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 30) and a control group (n = 30). The intervention group underwent a 12-week program combining 3 sessions of Zumba (60 min each) and 2 mindfulness sessions (30 min each) per week. Comprehensive measurements included body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage, waist-to-hip ratio, fasting lipid profile, cortisol levels, Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), and Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (PACES). Data were analyzed using paired t-tests, independent t-tests, repeated measures ANOVA, and effect size calculations. Results: Participants in the intervention group showed significant reductions in BMI (-2.1 ± 0.4, p < 0.01), body fat percentage (-4.8%, p < 0.01), waist-to-hip ratio (-0.08 ± 0.02, p < 0.01), and stress levels (-6.2 ± 1.8, p < 0.01) compared to controls. Significant improvements were also observed in positive affect, mindfulness scores, exercise enjoyment, and cortisol regulation. Effect sizes were large for most outcome measures (Cohen's d > 0.8). Conclusion: The integration of Zumba exercise and mindfulness training in a structured wellness program effectively improved both metabolic and psychological health markers with sustained effects. These findings highlight the potential of hybrid physical-psychological interventions in holistic health promotion and provide evidence for community-based wellness programs
