The Second International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling (ICIDS 2009) is happening in Guimarães, Portugal on December 9-12 2009. This conference series continues to investigate the areas that were covered by TIDSE (Technologies for Interactive Digital Storytelling) and ICVS (Virtual Storytelling – Using Virtual Reality Technologies for Storytelling).

I am interested in attending and in submitting a paper from the perspective of a user of SL for educational interaction in a middle eastern context. The users of digital media are our students. The way in which they adapt to the media of SL and the potential for ESl acquisition. The way events can be recorded in an e portfolio and become part of the students PLE and the ramifications for learning and assessment are my current interests
