The research field on textbooks for Music Education is relatively recent, a fact that brings yet a timid corpus or researches. Concerning digital textbooks, those researches are even scarcer. This paper discusses the digital solutions for Music Education in basic schooling in Brazil, and elect as study objects the «Teacher's digital textbooks» for Art/Music Education, distributed by the Brazilian federal textbook program known as PNLD, in its 2020 edition. The theoretical framework is related to "manualistics" and studies connected to the concepts of schooling culture. The main method of this research is the document analysis taking as object the twenty eight digital art/music textbooks approved by the 2020 PNLD program. The results show that: digital textbooks became a reality in the Brazilian public textbook programs; the nature of those textbooks are still being shaped what is revealed by a variety of contours and structures, different of what happens in the printed version of textbooks, usually seen as more uniformed; the didactic models of those digital textbooks are, in general, still conservative, revealing a tendency of maintaining methodological models of the printed books. Finely, this research allows highlighting the efforts in offering better Art/Music digital textbooks to Brazilian students, enabling a dialogue with aspects of the contemporary world.

This paper presents a project design that has been used at a Midwest College with upper-level undergraduate and graduate students for eight semesters. This project incorporates a collaborative learning model that addresses limitations often found in teaching technical courses. The collaborative learning model engages the student more actively in the learning process by enabling them as the topic researcher and paper editor, which is not the case in traditional classes. The students produce relevant course-related content that is evaluated and improved using an easily accessible online medium available to class members and faculty. The papers or chapters are then presented using an online book format which includes two navigation techniques. The benefits of this project design are also discussed in this paper.

Blockchain technology has gained significant prominence in the business world. Its impact has been felt in many sectors, but its integration and interoperability remain complex. Many challenges remain, both for users and business consultants, as well as for IT engineers. One of the challenges identified by the research community is the need to provide mechanisms to specify, verify and validate the requirements and business rules that smart contracts must comply with before they can be deployed in a blockchain network. This paper describes a proposal, based on model-driven and useroriented engineering, that aims to obtain functional verification from smart contract specifications in a systematic way. This proposal has been validated in the SmartISBN project, an R+D+i project whose objectives included ensuring the software quality of smart contracts and, above all, improving the traceability of digital publishing (electronic books and journals) using blockchain technology. In this context, this proposal has facilitated the communication between functional experts (authors, publishers, booksellers, etc.) and IT engineers during the specification phase of the global SmartISBN solution and in particular of the smart contracts, as well as during the definition of the functional tests necessary for the validation of the project.

The main goal of this paper is to analyze how technological change affects the Spanish publishing industry and how it is adapting to the new digital environment. This work provides an averview of the situation of the Spanish publishing sector through the collection of data, mainly from secondary sources of information, both public and private, from 1996 to 2017, that involved the review of a large number of documents from different sources, the analysis of data obtained, and the generation of a time series allowing us to glimpse the state and evolution of digitalization in the Spanish publishing industry throughout these last twenty years. The paper refers to the new business models emerging as a result of digitization to, finally, close with some conclusions and limitations of the research. This study is not trying to be just a journey through the past, present and future of the spanish book industry in Spain, but it pretends to be the first step to continue investigating these and other aspects in a deeper way.

In this article, we present a chronology of the development of items that support reading and writing. The paper analyzes changes as well as the impact on social communicative relations. As a result of technological development, a current stage deemed determining, we make a revision of new reading and writing practices. From this revision, we conclude that we do not have forcible items that allow us to support the possible disappearance of printed books, yet we can speak of the rise of new ways to read and write.

Opinion survey on the presence of the ebook in the environment of Libraries Groups on Science (GBC). Two questionnaires, one applied to the head librarians and another aimed at end users (researchers, teachers and students) were performed. In this paper the results corresponding to the survey of head librarians. The percentages allocated by libraries to purchase electronic books, factors that influence their purchase, most appropriate purchasing model, most used formats, means offering ebooks, advantages and disadvantages compared to the printed book and diffusion are treated points. The results are useful indicators for decision-making regarding the acquisition and use of these materials in academic libraries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
