This study aimed to recognize the extent of agreement among the instructional technology teachers who work in the State of Kuwait’s general education schools (i.e., government- public and private schools) towards the application of the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) Standards for Coaches in general education; in addition to reveal the effect of some independent- factor variables on the acceptance level. A quantitative descriptive research design was exploited. A stratified random sample of 357 participated electronically - using ICT social media networks, tools, apps, and services for distribution and delivery of the study’s survey questionnaire to educational technology teachers - in this study at the end of the second semester of 2017-2018 academic year. The findings uncovered clearly that the level of agreement among the educational technology teachers concerning the integration of ISTE Standards for Coaches in Kuwait’s general education schools is “high”. The results also revealed the existence of some significant differences among the constituents with regard to some independent variables (e.g., qualification, and educational stage). Nevertheless, the general analysis of participants’ responses indicated an overwhelming “high” agreement- acceptance level- degree among all constituents in favor of the application of these standards.
