Introduction: the introduction of computing means for teaching in health sciences majors is of vital importance. Topics such as that on cochlear implant require didactic resources that show in motion the inner structure of organs, for better understanding. Objective: to develop audiovisual resources that help the training and strengthening the third year students majoring in Speech Therapy-Phonoaudiology at the School of Health Technology in the subject Audiology V topic I (Cochlear implant), and for the Otolaryngology rotation fifth year students majoring in Medicine. Material and method: a prospective study of applied research was carried out, using theoretical and empirical methods for compiling the information. Surveys were conducted on students. By observation a perception was obtained about the difficulties in the learning of the topic of cochlear implant. Results: the multimedia “Cochlear Implant” was developed, counting on five functionalities: topics, exercise, library, games and help. It constitutes an interactive means that propitiates knowledge and self-evaluation, incentivizing research interest. Besides, it can be used in the subject Morphology and Physiology. Conclusions: a multimedia was developed that facilitates the training and strengthening of the students’ learning the topic of cochlear implant.
