jquery Basics -> Using text() and html() -> Problem with h1 contents

I don't know what is wrong with my answer. It is clear to me that I can't use text() because there are html-tags inside. So why is it telling me, that Task 1 is no longer passing?

Thanks for help in advance! Marvin

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1 class="profile-header"></h1>
    <p class="profile-text"></p>

    <script
    src="jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
    <script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
app.js 
$('.profile-header').html('Student <span>Profile</span>');

In task 1 (and 2), you selected a different element and changed its contents. But that code doesn't seem to be there anymore.

Remember the hint given in the challenge: "Important: In each task of this code challenge, the code you write should be added to the code from the previous task."
