Lesson 3 of 10. You may study lessons in any order. Complete and mark all ten before the final quiz.
Your goal
Open two familiar pages in separate tabs, move between them, close only the practice tab, and reopen it. Verify both page titles.
Before starting
Use your own authorized practice account or a harmless practice document. Identify the active application and the focused control before each command. Keep these instructions in a separate window. Never include passwords or private messages in your learning notes.
Follow the product and device version named in each procedure. A plus sign means hold the modifier while pressing the final key; “then” means release before continuing. These procedures are documentation-based and have not been tested here with the actual assistive software or signed-in reading accounts.
Work with two tabs
What you will learn: Keep your instructions available while opening another page.
Exactly how to do it
- Press Ctrl+T and open a second familiar website.
- Use Ctrl+Page Up or Ctrl+Page Down to move between adjacent tabs.
- Close the practice tab with Ctrl+W. Reopen it with Ctrl+Shift+T.
What should happen: You can return to both pages.
If that does not happen: Confirm the active tab before closing it; closing the final tab may close the window.
Practice: Describe which page you expect before switching, then verify the title.

Your practice assignment
Open two familiar pages in separate tabs, move between them, close only the practice tab, and reopen it. Verify both page titles.
Check your work before marking complete
- Identify the starting application, account, device, or keyboard layout used for this task.
- Demonstrate each part of the goal above and describe the result after each action.
- Return to the saved item, passage, or starting setting when the task calls for it.
- Explain one problem you encountered or could encounter and the recovery step you would use.
- Record whether you worked independently, needed a prompt, or used the written alternative.
If the application, membership, or device is unavailable: complete a written walkthrough of this exact assignment. Include the starting context, ordered actions, expected results, and one recovery step. Label it “written alternative — not tested on the device.” The completion record is self-reported, not an instructor-verified skills assessment.
