The Role of Digital-Based Civic Education Teaching Media in Increasing Students' Readiness to Face the Era of Society 5.0

The rapid development of technology has significantly increased its influence on all aspects of life. One area that cannot escape this influence is education. We are now entering a new era known as Society 5.0. To adapt to developments in the era of Society 5.0, students must develop digital literacy skills and an interest in technology. The most important factor influencing students' interest in technology is the learning media used. Efforts to strengthen digital literacy can be implemented through civic education in schools. This research aims to describe digital-based civic education learning media designed to prepare students for the era of Society 5.0. The method used in this study is a literature review. The results show that digital-based civic education teaching media, particularly in the form of the metaverse, is more effective in preparing students and has proven to increase their readiness for Society 5.0 compared to visual audio media. This conclusion is based on several studies that highlight the advantages of metaverse teaching media. These advantages include increasing students' interest in technology, making the learning process more interactive, improving learning outcomes, eliminating spatial and temporal limitations, and creating virtual environments and objects that support learning.
