The study is a randomized-controlled cross-over study to evaluate the impact of integrating simulation-based teaching for gastrointestinal endoscopy for medical students. It will establish a novel pedagogy for teaching in a wide array of disciplines in healthcare settings. Building on an innovative virtual teaching platform, investigators will design interactive, immersive 360 virtual reality videos on Video-Vox with a facilitated structured debriefing platform in endoscopy teaching. In medical teaching, clinical exposure is indispensable to students' learning process. However, some premises are not easily accessible, such as operating theatres and endoscopy suites. By using 360 virtual reality technology, participants can be immersed in online screen-based learning in health situations that are difficult to visit in the real world. The evident advantages of this technology will pave the way to novel approaches to medical education and training. Other real-life clinical settings, such as resuscitation scene in wards, surgical procedures in operation theatres, patient care in intensive care units, can adopt similar teaching platforms for the learner to get a 'first-hand' experience of the situation. The learning process is further reinforced by time-stamps and inquiry-based debriefing. This project will set a springboard for innovative pedagogy for undergraduate teaching in the medical curriculum.
