Background: To improve the quality of education, evaluating clinical and theoretical teaching and giving feedbacks to the teachers to obviate the drawbacks is of important value. Evaluation results are reliable if the gathered data are correct and precise and it can be achieved only if there are precise tools to gather data. This study was performed to prepare valid forms to evaluate theoretical and clinical teaching. An appropriate weight has been allocated to each item. Method: Separate checklists were designed for students, in order to evaluate theoretical and clinical teaching. Also special forms were developed for teacher evaluations by heads of departments and school deans .School deans ,on the other hand, completed special checklists to evaluate vice-deans and head of departments. Using the expert’s attitudes, the validity was calculated by Delphi method and the weight of different items was calculated by trim mean. Findings: The questionnaire had different categories including discipline, teaching method, scientific level and evaluation. The longest forms had 17 items (theoretical and practical teaching). The highest validity coefficient was 0.9 0.07 and the lowest was 0.83 0.03. The most important item in theoretical teaching was scientific level of teachers and in clinical teaching, it was on time attendance. Conclusion. Designing checklist for assessment of achievement in educational objectives is very essential and it must be precise and correct. The item must be checked because of changing educational context.
