ABSTRACT
Evaluation of medical teacher performances is necessary to build better educational goals in training medical students into qualified physicians. Portfolio is widely used in any field of education, including medicine. The use of portfolio in evaluating the medical teacher performance may help finding the best way possible to improve the quality of medical education. Medical educator teaching portfolio (METP) could be implemented by analyzing the institutional context while maintaining its main component of evaluation, personal professional development, learning process, and additional features. The challenges of implementation of METP including human resources, funding, workloads, and technology should be addressed by faculty members to overcome. Consideration of the importance of METP shows how far we strive for ensuring the best quality for education in medical institution.
