Background. Integrating digital technology in education is essential to meet the evolving needs of students, especially in higher education. Traditional methods of teaching sports biomechanics often lack interactive elements crucial for understanding complex concepts. Objective. This study aims to develop and evaluate digi-biosportex, a digital interface-based learning media designed to improve university students’ understanding of sports biomechanics, utilizing the project-based learning (PBL) model for an interactive learning experience. Method. The development followed the 4D model (define, design, development, dissemination), incorporating features such as movement simulations, injury analysis tools, and biomechanical instructional materials. Result. The findings show that digi-biosportex is valid and practical, enhancing students’ theoretical and practical understanding of sports biomechanics. Conclusion. Digi-biosportex is an effective tool for teaching sports biomechanics, offering a model for integrating digital technology into complex subjects. © 2025, Society of Aging and Physical Activity (SAPA).
