## **đź’» Strong or Bold?**
Young web designers and developers often assume and tags are the same. While both tags are considered HTML5 semantic tags, there are some important differences to understand when determining which tag to use while creating a web page.
It’s important for web designers to understand the meaning of the content within their web projects in order to utilize the most appropriate semantic HTML5 tags. Before coding, encourage your students to think about the meaning and context behind their web design content.
