Tip: ‘Beep’   ‘Beep’ is like ‘Poke’ in Facebook, it’s a way to get the attention of someone you’re talking to.  If you both have the sound turned on your computer you should both hear a beep as well.

Tip:  Your tutor may have enabled viewing of past chat sessions so you can keep track of any conversations you’ve had with other students.  This is not editable; it’s only a record of what was discussed and you cannot see other peoples discussions if you weren’t there to take part.

      3. To access old sessions click on the link ‘View past chat sessions’ in the Chat page.
