Scriptapedia

__NOTOC____NOEDITSECTION__ 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. /Acknowledgements/ /Preface/ Creating and contributing a script to Scriptapedia /Versions (different languages)/ Introduction to System Dynamics and related concepts Defining System Dynamics and related concepts /ScriptsMap and Design Logic/ /Group Facilitation/ /Roles in Group Model Building/ /Glossary of terms/ Scripts Offline Scripts A.
