Introduction: the use of teaching aids on the teaching-learning process of morphology and physiology subjects should be improved to strengthen knowledge of basic sciences in Medical Studies. Objective: to assess the use of teaching aids on the teaching-learning process of morphology and physiology of the osteomyoarticular system on 1^st academic year of medical studies at "Dr. Ernesto Guevara de la Serna" Medical School. Pinar del Rio. Material and Methods: empirical and theoretical methods were used along with descriptive statistics procedures. Professors of the subjects were taken as a target group (n=6), as well as the consultants of the subject (n=4) and students of the 1^st academic year of medical studies receiving the subject of Human Morphology and Physiology II (n=161) during 2010-2011. Results: no correspondence was found regarding the organization of contents on CDs and the ones currently included in the syllabus of the subject, criteria of experts, professors and students in relation to the difficulties with the teaching aids, which was verified in the majority of the responses. Conclusions: the teaching aids used to teach the morphology and physiology of osteomyoarticular system give no responses to an interactive learning, where knowledge must be built and for the students to develop their own learning strategies, that is why it is necessary to better the teaching aids.
