There have been several changes in the existing system of medical education in India. Competency-based Medical Education (CBME), being implemented from 2019, aims to make competent Indian Medical Graduates at the end of their undergraduate training.
The new system focuses on small group teaching–learning, self-directed learning, and early clinical exposure, among other things. The curriculum has been divided into competencies. Under the new system, the first month of MBBS is exclusively devoted to the ‘Foundation Course’. The Foundation Course spans a total of 175 hours in which 30 hours are allotted for Orientation, 35 hours for Skills Module, 8 hours for Field Visits, 40 hours for Professional Development including Ethics, 40 hours for Language and Computer Skills and 22 hours for Sports and Extracurricular Activities. The Foundation Course aims to introduce the student to the medical profession and the role of a doctor in society.
This Logbook helps the student in maintaining a record of all the sessions conducted during the Foundation Course. It will also help the student in building and developing basic writing skills, allowing them to reflect on what they have learnt in each session. Additionally, it will also serve as a nostalgic reminder of the wonderful first few days that they have spent in the medical college.
