As you learned from Day One of the Accessibility Challenge, headings are the backbone of the content on your content page in Canvas. A student should be able to scan the Canvas page using headings to get a good impression of the content. Heading levels have meaning, especially for screen reader users. That means one unique first level heading per page, with the other headings representing the page content similar to the index of a book: easily scannable and semantic. A friendly reminder, in Canvas the first level heading is automatically the title of the page, so you will begin with heading level 2.
For today's challenge we invite you to review one of your Canvas pages that has a minimum of 3 headings that includes the usage of at least heading level 2 and heading level 3. Check to make sure your headings are accessible and submit the URL of the Canvas page to the following submission portal: Accessibility Day Two Challenge
Please keep in mind the following friendly reminders:
Use heading levels like the index of a book: hierarchical.
Do not choose a heading by its size, but by its level in the context of the content.
Do not skip a heading level from the top down.
