Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:The use of logbooks in the education of medical undergraduate students is not well-established. Traditionally, logbooks are used simply as a means for students to document their activities. This report examines whether logbooks used as an interactive vehicle between students and tutors can assist both student learning and Faculty teaching. METHOD:As part of the New Medical Curriculum implemented by the Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, all third year students beginning their formal hospital and community health clerkships were given pocket-sized logbooks to document and monitor their learning activities. The logbooks were specially designed to mirror the activities of the teaching blocks, including bedside teaching, tutorials, teaching clinics, health care projects, and whole class sessions, etc. RESULTS:At the end of each teaching block, effort, accuracy of the notes, appropriateness of the notes and the assessor's overall impression of logbook entries formed the basis of 20-point assessment. Randomly-selected logbooks were reviewed at the end of every rotation and compared with course outlines in order to evaluate if, according to the students' notes, the learning objectives were being met. Throughout each teaching block, the logbook process identified students who could benefit from counselling and/or remediation. The logbook feedback mechanism was immediate and therefore, remediation was timely and appropriate. CONCLUSIONS:The logbooks were effective in 3 ways: logbooks were a means of continuous assessment of small group learning; logbooks encouraged immediate and ongoing interaction between tutors and students; and they provided a feedback loop for the evaluation of learning activities.
