Materials evaluation studies have constantly demonstrated that there is no one fixed procedure for conducting textbook evaluation studies. Instead, the criteria must be selected according to the needs and objectives of the context in which evaluation takes place. The speaking skill as part of the communicative competence has been emphasized as an important objective in language teaching. The pr...

[2] postulates that the multi-ethnolect Hood German (as spoken in Berlin, Ger) differentiates three realizations of /ç/: [ç], [ɕ] and [∫]. Earlier acoustic analyses of 1192 tokens of /ç/ from the ZASspontaneous speech database (collected from 9 adolescent speakers of the Hood German multiethnolect) [9] showed no reliable differences in curtosis, skewness, cog or peak between items impressionist...

What does the Impact Factor tell us? This question is addressed by Peter Glitz in his Editorial, particularly in light of the surprising drop in the 2013 Impact Factor of Angewandte Chemie. An explanation is sought and found. Most importantly the influence of the individual variables that determine the Impact Factor needs to be understood.
