The purpose of this course is to provide an overview of the longest phase of the life cycle - adulthood. Throughout the course, we will separate the myths and stereotype about aging from factual theories and knowledge and emphasize both the problems and potentials that accompany the aging process. We will emphasize how life span development will influence students in their personal experiences of aging as well as those of family members and friends.
