     Hi Larry
     Sorry, it is not possible. The modules are sequential, building on each other, and need to be completed with Module 1 first.

     It is however possible to complete Module 1 in Semester 2 this year, and then do Modules 2 and 3 in Semester 1 of next academic year.

     Hope this helps.
