# Chat

The one-on-one conversation provide you the opportunity to discuss the learned material with fellow learners, as well as with the instructor. 

Clicking on the Chat tab shows all the users you have conversations with (and the last message that was written).

### Rich text messages

\
The chat enables a richer experience of writing:

* **Ordered list** (Type 1.  (or any other number followed by a period) at the beginning of a new line and it will magically transform to an ordered list)
* **Bullet list** (Type \* , -  or +  at the beginning of a new line)

{% hint style="success" %}
**Shift + Enter for a new line**
{% endhint %}
