This is the next topic or idea in the DQ response. If your DQ has more than one part or question, you will want to use a level 2 heading. You can now see how I am using the level 1 and level 2 headings. Font and Next Topic or Idea are level 2 headings. The Title of the Paper and Conclusion are level 1 headings.
