Deploying the Taxonomy for Researchers and Educators

In this chapter, we propose a concrete application of the TDMLR, described in Chap. 4 . We present an extensive database of publications on digital materials aimed at music education, as well as a web platform that we have designed, implemented, and publicly released, that allows users to explore and navigate the publication database through the dimensions and nodes of the TDMLR. Additionally, the web platform is equipped with analytical tools to make inferences about the most relevant principles and trends in available educational resources, along dimensions. Finally, we propose possible relevant uses of the TDMLR, based on the publication database and on the web platform.
