Indentation is very important in Python. For the 1st task it is straight forward. You don't need to indent your first two lines of code. When you do indent, according to python docs, you should indent 4 spaces. So try:

continents = [
    'Asia',
    'South America',
    'North America',
    'Africa',
    'Europe',
    'Antarctica',
    'Australia',
]
# Your code here
print ("continent :")
for continent in continents:
    print ("* "+ continent)

Note: There should be a space between your bullet and the continent name.
