Allocation: RANDOMIZED
Intervention model: PARALLEL
Primary purpose: OTHER

Brief summary: The goal of this randomized control study is to determine if the use of standardized coaching language by faculty trainers for teaching colonoscopy is associated with improved colonoscopy performance. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* If the use of standardized coaching language is effective in improving colonoscopy training?
* If the use of standardized coaching language influences the clarity of instructions by the faculty trainers during colonoscopy teaching Participants will take part in simulated colonoscopy teaching encounter using a virtual reality simulator for 1 hour in 2 different sessions 2 weeks apart.

Researchers will compare 2 groups of faculty trainers to to see if the standardized coaching language effects the colonoscopy training quality.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Faculty members who are endoscopy trainers in either pediatric or adult gastroenterology division at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center or Children's Medical Center, Dallas
* Fellow trainees in pediatric or adult gastroenterology division at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center or Children's Medical Center, Dallas

Exclusion Criteria:

* Advanced endoscopy fellows
* Fellows beyond Post-Graduate Year-6 (PGY-6)
