* Please note that JIBE is not a research journal, but an education journal, which publishes case studies, teaching articles, opinion pieces and
forums along with some education research. It is a teaching tool... a textbook journal. Innovative teaching strategies and curriculum
design have an impact on the way business courses are taught around the world and cannot be measured via citation indices. The teaching materials
are available for ordering as individual articles (case studies/exercises/lecture articles) via the JIBE website, and global distribution
channels (Case Centre clearing house, aggregated content databases). Hence the inclusion of individual article orders above as a major component
of the journal's usage. Its true impact is therefore not measurable by existing research metrics as used in current journal ranking lists.
