Thanks for the link, but no thanks. Anything that contains the words "role playing" gives me chills. Teachers often are forced to make fools of themselves during in-service training (IST?)just because the "expert" that the administration hired is hung up on role-playing. These people seem to disreguard the well-know fact that role playing is just another name for audience participation exercise (APE), the lowest form of entertainment. People who employ such tactics do so because they would rather make fools of their audience(capitive or otherwise)than themselves.

On the other hand, I can see some advantages to doing this stuff on line rather than in person.
