Introduction:

the use of information and communication technologies has become widespread in the teaching-learning process to facilitate the continuity of studies in university students, due to the global epidemiological situation. Natural and traditional medicine is a fundamental pillar for the exercise of clinical practice, hence the need for the development of its vertical internship.

Objective:

to design a teaching aid for the students of the vertical internship to learn acupuncture and digitopuncture.

Materials and methods:

a cross-sectional study of technological development was conducted at the Medical Sciences University of Matanzas, between September 2021 and February 2022. The design and validation on a proposal of digital teaching aid for the vertical internship was carried out.

Results:

the Acupuncture module was elaborated together with basic clinical areas for the vertical internship of Natural and Traditional Medicine, with the use of human anatomy. A teaching aid was designed using graphics and virtual information, which were qualified as very adequate, both in relevance and usefulness.

Conclusions:

a teaching aid was created that allows the student of the vertical internship of the Medicine studies to interact with the contents of Human Anatomy and Natural and Traditional Medicine.
