Abstract
We developed a logbook for bedside teaching two years ago and encouraged students to utilize it in bedside teaching. We wanted students to use the logbooks to record their growth, and to reflect on their past logbooks. We believe it is first necessary to develop in students the motivation for independent learning, so that a busy teacher can efficiently train students despite time constraints. As two years have passed since the introduction of the logbook, we administered a questionnaire survey about the current situation of the logbook to a bedside teaching student and a teacher. For the further improvement of bedside teaching, it is necessary for us to actively refine the logbook and improve it for the sake of both students and teachers.
