In a common fifteen-week semester, instructors may pick the areas they prefer to emphasize and stretch these modules over two or more weeks. The \"smallest\" modules are the first introductory module, Lifespan Development, and the final module on Death and Dying, but the modules on Middle Adulthood and Late Adulthood are also a bit smaller. The largest modules, that could easily be drawn out to cover more than one week, are those on Infancy, Early Childhood, Middle Childhood, and Early Adulthood.\n<div>\n<table style=\"width: 827px;height: 454px\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 15px\">\n<th style=\"height: 15px;width: 234.766px\">\n<h3>Weeks<\/h3>\n<\/th>\n<th style=\"height: 15px;width: 301.016px\">\n<h3>15-week semester<\/h3>\n<\/th>\n<th style=\"height: 15px;width: 251.016px\">\n<h3>8-week semester<\/h3>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 1<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 1: Lifespan Development<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 1: Lifespan Development and\u00a0Module 2: Developmental Theories<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 10px\">\u00a0Week 2<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 10px\">Module 2: Developmental Theories<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 10px\">Module 3: Prenatal Development and\u00a0Module 4: Infancy<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 3<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 3: Prenatal Development<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 5: Early Childhood<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 4<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 4: Infancy<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 6: Middle Childhood<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 5<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">\"\"<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 7: Adolescence<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 6<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 5: Early Childhood<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 8: Early Adulthood<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 7<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">\u00a0\"<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 9: Middle Adulthood and\u00a0Module 10: Late Adulthood<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 8<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 6: Middle Childhood<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\">Module 11: Death and Dying<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 9<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">\"<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 10<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 7: Adolescence<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">\u00a0Week 11<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 8: Early Adulthood<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">Week 12<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">\"<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">Week 13<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 9: Middle Adulthood<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">Week 14<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 10: Late Adulthood<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 12px\">\n<td style=\"width: 234.766px;height: 12px\">Week 15<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 301.016px;height: 12px\">Module 11: Death and Dying<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 251.016px;height: 12px\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>","rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-260\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2043\/2018\/01\/22172645\/stopwatch.png\" alt=\"icon of a stopwatch\" width=\"200\" height=\"212\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This Lifespan Development course contains eleven modules, which provides room for flexibility to teach the course within a variety of semester constraints.
