Scriptapedia

Scriptapedia is an introduction to group model building that uses structured small group exercises called scripts. Scriptapedia is intended to be an easily edited freely distributed book to support the creation of new scripts, discussion of what works and what doesn't, and internationalization of group model building practice.
