That particular code challenge is based on the preceeding lesson ("Add Style to the Page"). This is essentially to review that you understand the basic concept of adding internal styles to elements. I recommend that you click on the left arrow in the right corner of that screen to bring the previous video back up and watch that segment again. However, your code should look something like this (below), where you would replace the ellipsis with your own CSS code.

<body>
   <style>
     ...
   </style>
   <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>

In summary, the purpose of this internal CSS block is to modify the display properties of the h1 element and therefore effectively changing how the name displays (e.g. changing the color of the displayed name). I hope this helps, if not just let me know and I'll respond back.
