Aim. To know the opinion of the first students generation that has grown up under the information and communication technology about the methodologies currently used in the teaching-learning of gross human anatomy in medical studies. Subjects and methods. The study was based on the data provided by an anonymously answered survey. Seventy-four students of the second year medical students at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria answered the survey. Results and conclusions.The methodologies better considered for learning gross human anatomy were the study of cases and the recognition of anatomic structures in fixed human material (prosections and dissection). The students considered the main advantage of the last, the recognition of tridimensional anatomical structures and the consolidation of anatomical knowledge, and the main disadvantage was the unpleasant odour due to the fixing process. Students considered the study of cases, the recognition and identification of structures in fixed human material and the surface anatomy sessions, the methodologies that better suited to acquire skills in clinical anatomy and the lectures and the study of fixed human material the most appropriate methodologies to obtain knowledge about descriptive and functional anatomy. Plastic anatomical models and computing resources were considered the worst methods to study gross human anatomy.
