The aim of this study was to produce an e-Learning module to assist the users of Village Knowledge Centres (VKCs), Puducherry, which is one of the information centres in coastal areas and to evaluate its suitability as an alternative learning material. The centre was initiated by Information Village Research Project of M.S. Swaminathan Research Foundation, Chennai, India for aquaculture development in coastal areas. The module development and evaluation followed the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation (ADDIE) model of Instructional System Design. Based on the overall assessment of the VKCs, the asynchronous e-Learning module in Tamil on mud crab fattening, which has been identified as one of the species for diversification in brackishwater aquaculture, was developed by Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture (CIBA). The results revealed that the items related to contents produced, visual design, accessibility and presentation style had good responses. The findings indicated that majority of the respondents had intention to use the module in future (85.3%) and to recommend the module to other learners (100%) who are interested in mud crab fattening. The results also revealed that 84% of the respondents felt that this module could be used as an alternative learning material in mud crab fattening though it still needed improvements in various aspects such as presentation of information with animation effects, user friendliness and interactivity.
