Abstract

Fluid mechanics is a discipline of applied mechanics that deals with the behavior of liquids and gases at rest or in motion and gases at rest or in motion. The aim of the current research is to get an in-depth picture of the science pre-service teachers’ (PST) logical thinking skill and the lecture profile in fluid mechanics. The subjects were selected from both the students and lecturer in Fluid Mechanics Course (FMC) in one of the science education departments at a state university in the city of Pekanbaru. Conducted through qualitative-descriptive methods, the data were collected through test, observation, interview and documentation. Research instruments include the logical thinking skill test (LTST) adapted from Edunitas, observation sheets, interview questions list, and question checklist. The LTST as quantitative data processed using descriptive statistics with the help of SPSS 26.0 and the qualitative data processed using Miles and Huberman method. Based on the results, the mean score of LTST is 47,36. It can conclude that students' logical thinking is still low. Supported by observations and interviews, it disclosed that lectures still use the lecture method assisted by PhET simulation media while students only listen. Based on the question checklist, the mid-term exam already encompasses to critical thinking skill but the examples and practice questions are still at cognitive level C3 according to Bloom’s Taxonomy. Thus, the current fluid mechanics has not been able to train students' critical thinking skills. Innovation is crucial needed in fluid mechanics learning to improve students’ critical thinking skills.

Abstract

Despite growing interest in innovating fluid mechanics education, teaching strategies and learning outcomes often remain fragmented rather than systematically aligned. This study aims to comprehensively examine global research trends and pedagogical patterns in fluid mechanics education within higher science education. An integrated approach combining bibliometric analysis and qualitative meta-analysis through a systematic literature review (SLR) was employed. A total of 326 Scopus-indexed publications published between 2019–2025 were analyzed using the Bibliometrix package in RStudio for performance analysis, while 35 selected studies were further examined through PRISMA-guided qualitative coding using NVivo software. The findings reveal a rapidly growing research field, although international collaboration remains limited. Thematic analysis indicates a strong shift toward student-centered and technology-enhanced pedagogies, particularly flipped classrooms, simulation-based learning, and computational instruction. However, instructional strategies are predominantly implemented in isolation, with limited integration across learning designs. Consequently, learning outcomes, such as conceptual understanding, problem-solving skills, and computational competencies remain insufficiently aligned. Overall, this study highlights a critical gap in unifying pedagogical approaches, instructional strategies, and learning outcomes within coherent frameworks. Future research should develop and empirically validate integrated, technology-supported instructional models to foster holistic, transferable learning in higher education fluid mechanics.
