Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Curriculum Group
The curriculum group will undergo a comprehensive curriculum in colonoscopy utilizing a virtual reality (VR) colonoscopic simulator. This curriculum involves 6 hours of interactive, small-group didactic teaching on colonoscopy interlaced with 8 hours of supervised one-on-one endoscopy VR simulation training with experienced endoscopists.
Curriculum Group
Self-directed learning group
The self-directed group will receive 8 hours of colonoscopic virtual reality (VR) simulation practice with an experienced endoscopist present, but without structured training.
