Teacherassessment can be mentioned as essential for the success of the quality promotion process.

Methods: A two-stage,cross-sectional study was conducted on 290 Lorestan University of Medical Science students.First, evaluation priorities were extracted using the Delphi technique in the fifth section, includingteaching skills, communication skills, principles of training, and skills assessment. In the secondstage, as the priority and importance of each item was evaluated in the fourth Lickert option,sampling was done in few stages. The study instrument was a questionnaire, which included sixareas. The first part of the questionnaire was made up of the demographic characteristics and thesecond part included five evaluation areas that were obtained from the student. The collected datawere analyzed using statistical software SPSS-16 and chi-square test, Kruskal-Wallis test. Results:In the areas of teaching skills, mastery of the course, individual characteristics, self-confidence,communication skills, intimate relationship with students, educational principles, rules respectingthe beginning and end time of class, skill assessment, and an accurate comprehensive examinationat the end of the semester by the students, were chosen as the most important factors.

Read More Background: The purpose of this study was to assess nutritional intakes of female aerobic athletesin two different socio-economic classes in city of Isfahan. Materials and Methods: The participantsof this analytical study were 99 female aerobic athletes aged between 15 and 50 years old whowere randomly sampled (50 females in low economic region and 49 females in high economicregion). The demographic details were collected by a questionnaire, and anthropometric indexesincluding height, weight, and waste circumference were measured using a tape measure and ascale. They filled out the 24-hour food recall questionnaire for two consecutive days in order toobtain their nutritional information. To analyze the data, Nutritionist 4 and SPSS18 software wereused. Results: The means of energy intake in high and low regions were 1479.19 ± 561.86 and1300.68 ± 498.354 kcal, respectively. There was no significant difference in terms of energy intakebetween these two groups (P = 0.98). The means of protein intake in low and high socio-economicclasses were 17.41 ± 5.85 and 54.48 ± 6.62, respectively, and no significant differences wereobserved between these two regions (P = 0/606). The means of carbohydrate intake were 61.85± 9.76 and 54.48 ± 6.62 in the low and high socio-economic classes with a significant differencebetween them (P < 0.001). The mean of carbohydrate intake in the low socio-economic class wasconsiderably higher than that in the high socio-economic class. The means of fat intake were 23.88± 8.24% and 30.07 ± 6.68% in the low and high socio-economic classes, respectively, and themeans of fat intake in the high socio-economic region was significantly higher than that in the lowsocio-economic region (P < 0/001). Conclusion: The findings of this study indicated that the intakesof fat and carbohydrate were significantly different in the two different socio-economic regions incity of Isfahan. This difference could be attributed to different food patterns in these two regions.
