Abstract

The digital transformation has significantly reshaped the landscape of education, including the field of physical education. This study aims to analyze the challenges and opportunities of digital technology integration into teaching methods in sports education through a systematic literature review (SLR). Data were collected from 20 national and international journal articles published between 2020 and 2025. A thematic content analysis was applied focusing on three main aspects: (1) the transformation of physical education in the digital era, (2) challenges in implementing digitalization, and (3) opportunities and their impact on teaching methods. The findings indicate that digitalization presents substantial opportunities for pedagogical innovation through the application of artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), flipped classroom, and hybrid learning models, all of which enhance learning effectiveness and student engagement. However, several challenges persist, including low digital literacy among teachers, infrastructural limitations, and difficulties in assessing physical performance online. Consequently, digital transformation in sports education requires a shift in the teacher’s role—from a conventional instructor to a digital facilitator capable of adapting to technological change. This study emphasizes the need for policy support, professional development programs, and the integration of technology-based curricula to ensure the sustainability of digital transformation in physical education.

Abstract

Inclusive physical education represents a pedagogical approach that positions every student regardless of physical ability or social background as an active participant in physical activity. This study aims to analyze the concepts, strategies, and key factors influencing the successful implementation of inclusive physical education in schools. A literature-based research method was applied, reviewing national and international studies published between 2019 and 2025. The findings reveal that inclusive physical education positively impacts students’ physical participation, self-confidence, and social empathy. Teachers play a central role in integrating adaptive and differentiated teaching strategies as well as educational technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) and wearable devices to foster a participatory and equitable learning environment. However, limited facilities, lack of teacher training, and insufficient policy support remain major barriers, particularly in developing contexts such as Indonesia. In conclusion, the success of inclusive physical education depends on the synergy among teacher competence, institutional policy, and cross-sector collaboration to establish adaptive, inclusive, and human-centered physical learning environments for all students.

Abstract

The biomechanical and kinesiology approach provides a scientific foundation for understanding the relationship between force, movement, and neuromuscular control in enhancing performance and preventing injuries. This study aims to analyze the influence of biomechanics on sports kinesiology techniques through a literature review of studies published between 2020 and 2025 sourced from PubMed, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, BMC, BMJ, and The Lancet. The findings show that integrating both disciplines improves movement efficiency, postural stability, and physiological adaptation in athletes through the application of real-time biomechanical feedback and integrative neuromuscular training (INT). In addition, wearable sensor technology assists in detecting mechanical loads and individual injury risks. Thus, biomechanics serves not only as an analytical tool but also as a foundation for developing adaptive, safe, and sustainable training strategies to support optimal athletic performance.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based monitoring tools in improving students' physical activity engagement in technology-enhanced Physical Education (PE) classes. Using a quasi-experimental design, 60 junior high school students were divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group utilized AI-integrated wearable devices and mobile applications to track daily physical activity, while the control group followed conventional PE methods without AI support. Pre-test and post-test data were collected using standardized physical activity questionnaires and step-count metrics. Results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group's activity levels, with an average increase of 32% in daily step counts (from 4,500 to 5,940 steps, p < 0.05) and a 28% increase in physical activity motivation scores. In contrast, the control group showed minimal changes. The findings demonstrate that AI-based monitoring positively influences students' engagement and awareness of physical activity. The study concludes that AI technologies can serve as effective educational tools in modern PE instruction, although considerations regarding accessibility and teacher training remain essential for broader implementation.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate breaststroke swimming techniques (body position, arm movement, leg kick, and breathing) in students of the Physical Education, Health, and Recreation (PJKR) Study Program, Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences (FIKK), Makassar State University in 2024. The method uses a descriptive quantitative design with video observation and direct assessment on 50 students in semesters 3-5 who have taken basic swimming courses. The assessment instrument includes a 0-10 scale for four technical components with an ICC reliability of 0.92, validated by three expert examiners. Data were collected through a 25-meter swim recorded by a high-speed camera (120 fps), analyzed with descriptive statistics, reliability tests, and one-way ANOVA. The results showed good body position (mean=7.8; SD=1.2), moderate-good arm movement (mean=7.2; SD=1.4), good leg kick (mean=7.6; SD=1.3), adequate breathing (mean=6.9; SD=1.5), with an overall average of 7.4 (74%) in the good category. Breathing was the weakest component because the timing was not synchronized with the arm-leg cycle. Male students were significantly superior in leg kick (p=0.012), while female students were better in breathing (p=0.045). Influencing factors included training frequency (r=0.68) and water experience (r=0.62). The study concluded that the breaststroke swimming technique of PJKR FIKK UNM students was at a good level overall, but required specific interventions in breathing and coordination to achieve competitive standards.
