What should be the heading level in a D2L rich text field?

Renee.Judd22

When a course author wishes to structure a portion of a D2L page with headings, what is the correct level to use as the first heading? I assume that in the iframe of a Daylight content page, the html page used should have an h1 as the first text element.

But what about:

• A home page widget?
• An announcement in the Announcements widget on a course or institutional home page?
• A tool item description (Discussion and Assignments, e.g.)?
• A quiz question?

I am asking in relation to accessibility; we can certainly style any level of heading to look good in context. But what will make the heading be read and navigated correctly by a screen reader in the above contexts?
