This research, at PhD level in Language Studies, has as its theme two collections of digital mathematics textbook (LDDM) – model 1, distributed to teachers of the 2nd cycle of Elementary School (6th to 9th grade), in printed form. and digital, called the Teacher's Handbook, distributed to teachers at PNLD 2017. The digital DVD version contains the same student content with activity resolution, a reading and reading supplement for continuing teacher education, and Digital Educational Objects. The research is based on Social Semiotics (HALLIDAY AND MATHESSEN, 2004; KRESS, 2003, VAN LEEUWEN, 2005; KRESS and VAN LEEUWEN, 2006), developed in three axes: book technologies, didactic material and multiliteracies. The central question of the research is to understand how collections are conceived by their producers (concept), selected and used by teachers in the schools surveyed. As a result, research shows LDDM as a complex, multifaceted didactic material, the result of various transformations throughout history, moving today from print to digital as the technologies of the book evolve. The coexistence of printed and digital forms must continue for a long time, as happened in previous transitions of the antecedents of the current printed book. The research points out that, due to ignorance or misinformation, LDDM was most often chosen as a printed book and is thus used. In the concept of its producers, LDDM is just a didactic resource, a hybrid object combining print and digital resources. In my view, for a more effective use of the new book, the teacher needs new literacies - visual, digital and media. Thus, a book to be fully digital must meet four minimum requirements: portability, navigability, interactivity, and connectivity. Thus, LDDM is partially digital.
