Zora virtual environment is a combination of a 3D game, an interactive web site, and an instant messaging tool. This platform allows users to create virtual reality 3D environments, 3D objects and communicate with other participants. Therefore it gives young people the opportunity to explore, learn and express their identity. A part of the Zora virtual environment constitutes Zora Conversation Engine. By using this interactive graphical user interface, children and youth can program dynamic conversations for their 3D objects. Afterwards, their virtual objects can lead simple conversations with other visitors.
