Introduction: The teaching-learning process was modified with the advent of technology. Exhibitions with active interactions have been shown more effective. Therefore, the League of Oncology in partnership with the Roda da Vida (Wheel of Life) Institute, which offers Integrative Medicine in Oncology, held activities for a community assisted by the University of Fortaleza, aiming cancer prevention and health promotion in a more dynamic way. Objective: To report risk factors and to prevent cancer in an interesting way. To practice communication skills. To use the digital board. Methods: The Cancer Virtual Museum website and a digital board for community interaction with the students of LION. On the occasion, we used the "virtual home" website to show that many risk factors for cancer are in our routine. A video showing risks for the development of skin cancer was displayed and it was distributed leaflets about the characteristics of an evil stain. Main obstacles: need of previous training to use the board and availability of equipment, causing anxiety among members. Results: It was an important experience both for the community and for us. We realized how we can improve our communication skills to interact with the public. There was significant curiosity of the listeners to handle the board. Conclusion: There was enlightenment of the population and teaching about interactive tools with the public for us students. It was shown to be something to improve, in order to reach a wider audience in the future.
