Management of Early Childhood Education as Big Data-Based Human Capital Towards Society 5.0 in the Perspective of Early Childhood Islamic Education

Society 5.0 is the answer to the challenges of the industrial revolution 4.0 which many people are worried about because it will degrade the role of humans. The focus of Society 5.0 which places more emphasis on the convenience of human life with the help of information-based technology, artificial intelligence, and management of big data requires the formation of a super-intelligent society in dealing with the latest technology. Human Capital is the latest form of understanding that places humans as capital that plays an important role in every aspect of life in all fields, including education. Management of Early Childhood Education is a form of effort to realize human capital through investing in education from an early age, especially Early Childhood Islamic Education. The main objective of the research is to analyze the extent to which early childhood education management, especially early childhood Islamic education, utilizes big data. The research method used is a qualitative approach. Data were collected through document studies and in-depth interviews at PAUD institutions in Semarang District, Central Java Province, Indonesia. The results obtained in this study are the role of big data in the Management of Early Childhood Education (PAUD), especially in terms of Islam as a provider of information for the implementation of learning by PAUD educators, a learning resource for students other than teachers and a source of inspiration for PAUD policymakers. In the future, big data will become a source of information for the development of more interactive and multiple sensory-based learning media for PAUD educators and parents in educating early childhood, especially in teaching Islamic values. The nation's noble values will of course be the main guardians of learning media content so that the golden generation of the Indonesian nation still has the noble character as aspired to.
