To assess if proximal knowledge regarding radiation therapy (RT) treatment is improved as result of radiation therapist-led education sessions utilizing VERT.\n\nSECONDARY OBJECTIVE:\n\nI. To assess if proximal anxiety related to first RT is reduced as result of radiation therapist-led education sessions utilizing VERT.\n\nEXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:\n\nI. To determine whether self-reported knowledge changes throughout course of RT treatment.\n\nII. To evaluate if self-reported knowledge related to RT treatment differs by patient and tumor characteristics (gender, age, diagnosis, type of cancer, etc.).\n\nIII. To determine whether the level of patient knowledge and/or anxiety changes throughout radiation RT treatment.\n\nIV. To evaluate if the level of anxiety related to RT treatment differs by patient and tumor characteristics (gender, age, diagnosis, type of cancer, etc.).\n\nV. To characterize the levels informational support provided by interprofessional RT treatment team needs and knowledge gaps of cancer patients undergoing RT treatment.\n\nVI. To determine the sources of information related to RT treatment being accessed by study participants.\n\nVII. To assess self-reported satisfaction in knowledge gained regarding RT treatment.\n\nVIII. To compare the baseline proximal knowledge and anxiety of Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) patients with Compass Oncology patients.\n\nOUTLINE: Patients are either randomized to Arm I or 1 of 2 groups of Arm II, or assigned to the observational cohort.\n\nARM I: Patients complete a radiation therapist-led education module using virtual reality over 30 minutes at the first treatment appointment, prior to radiation therapy treatment.\n\nARM II: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups.\n\nARM II CONTROL GROUP I: Patients receive the usual verbal and written education materials at the first treatment appointment, prior to radiation therapy treatment.\n\nARM II CONTROL GROUP II: Patients complete a radiation therapist-led face-to-face education module at the first treatment appointment, prior to radiation therapy treatment.\n\nOBSERVATIONAL COHORT: Observational patients receive the usual verbal and written education materials at the first treatment appointment, prior to
