Handing over your phone is awkward. Why do the med school expect you to use your (own) phone? Student 4(m) Focus Group A |

After looking at them consult I would have given them quite a lot of feedback verbally and then I would use GeCoS to sort of back that up. I might have done it once with them sitting beside me but I found that I’m more concentrating on the computer. I’d rather be concentrating on the student in front of me so I wouldn’t do it that way. It’s an opportunity for them to ask questions. Tutor 5 (GP) |

I think you spend more time trying to make the IT work than you do try to make the conversation work, you get distracted by it. It’s a bit like a GP consultation and the role of a computer, the computer is there as an aid and it’s not there to guide the consultation. Patients complain if you spend all the time looking at the screen, so students get frustrated if you’re kind of there texting or whatever it is … the principle of it was brilliant and I am sure it can be made to work a bit better. You know, students live on their phones so that’s great. Tutor 2 (GP) |

If we got feedback more often, like in that clinic, like if every placement had something like that, if doctors were more aware of the app it would be so useful for getting feedback, ‘cause it’d just be like right we’re going to do a quick GeCoS now on what you just did, and that’d be great.
