The second edition of the Logbook Foundation Course and AETCOM for First MBBS Students is designed to fulfill the need of changing undergraduate medical education as per the new curriculum of Competency-based Medical Education (CBME). This logbook is more than just a record—it is a powerful learning tool to help students build a strong foundation in medical education while fostering critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and professional growth.\nThe logbook is designed to focus on all the aspects of the Foundation Course and AETCOM. It includes the following:\n• Multiple choice questions (MCQs): Designed to test and reinforce the understanding of key concepts, these MCQs serve as a quick self-assessment tool. They help to identify strengths and areas for improvement, ensuring a smooth transition into higher medical education.\n• Short answer questions (SAQs): These questions encourage to think beyond memorization and focus on core concepts. The SAQs are structured to articulate thoughts clearly, apply knowledge in real-world contexts, and build strong analytical skills. Practicing SAQs will enhance retention, improve structured writing, and refine problem-solving abilities—all essential for medical professionals.\n• Concept mapping and reflection: Understanding medical concepts is not just about reading and memorizing; it is about connecting ideas and applying them in practice. Concept mapping allows to visualize relationships between different topics, improving comprehension and long-term retention. Reflection exercises encourage deeper engagement with the key learning points.\n• This logbook is designed not only to help students track their learning progress but also to provide faculty with valuable insights into students’ understanding. \n• The integrated approach of the Foundation Course and AETCOM will shape well-rounded, confident, and ethical doctors, ready to take on the challenges of modern healthcare.
