[Dataset]. idUS (Depósito de Investigación de la Universidad de Sevilla). https://doi.org/10.12795/11441/165179.https://hdl.handle.net/11441/165179Background: Service-learning combines academic content with practical experiences, promoting engagement and community benefit. In sports science, it offers a platform for applying theoretical knowledge in real-world teaching scenarios. However, challenges exist in effectively communicating complex concepts like biomechanics to younger students. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the perceptions of high school students (learners) and university students (teachers) in a service-learning context focused on biomechanics. Methods: Conducted within a biomechanics course at the University of Seville, the study involved five sport science students teaching biomechanics concepts to five high school students. The intervention included four sessions that combined theoretical instruction with practical application, culminating in a conference presentation. Perceptions were assessed using a validated rubric evaluating basic, pedagogical, and organizational dimensions, and reliability of self-assessment in performance was calculated. Results: Both high school and university students reported high satisfaction across assessed domains, with average scores exceeding 3 out of 4 points. High school students demonstrated reliable self-assessment in biomechanical tasks, indicating successful knowledge retention and application. Conclusions: This study supports service-learning as an effective pedagogical strategy in biomechanics education, fostering positive perceptions and meaningful learning for both educational levels. The findings highlight the benefits of active teaching approaches in enhancing understanding of complex subjects and establishing beneficial connections between university and high school students.application/vnd.ms-excelspaAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Aprendizaje-servicioUniversidadInstitutoTecnologíaMetodología alternativaService-LearningUniversityHigh SchoolAlternative MethodologyTechnologyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/datasetinfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccesshttps://doi.org/10.12795/11441/165179
