The research findings were as follows: the 6 components of the model include: 1) the learners having ability in self learning, 2) teaching and consulting of instructors, 3) the contents on agriculture situations, 4) online collaborative tools, 5) computer network, and 6) evaluation. The learning process includes: 1) preparation of the learners, 2) presentation of problems, 3) analysis of variables, 4) creation of casual loop diagram, 5) searching information, and 6) decision making and presentation. The samples who studied in the Agricultural course that was designed by the instructional and development model had post-test scores for the leadership skill that were significantly higher than their pre-test scores in the leadership skill at .05 significant level.
