Summary

This randomized controlled trial evaluates the learning effectiveness of three different types of Colposcopy simulators objectively with Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skill (OSATS) and subjectively with self-reported confidence survey. A total of 60 participants, randomly assigned into 3 groups, will learn from Hefler's, Reeve's or authors' simulators. The investigators hypothesize that the proposed simulator affords better learning objectively and subjectively with improved functional fidelity.
