Abstract
We conducted a survey with the objective of studying the teachers' perspective of their students' learning in traditional calculus and its teaching strategies. This survey was targeted at mathematics teachers of the junior colleges, polytechnics and universities in Singapore. In this paper we present findings of the first part of our survey. The first part addresses various issues related to the mathematics teachers' perception of the current status of calculus education in Singapore. The findings of this study will be unique in Singapore context because, according to the best of our knowledge, no such survey on calculus education has ever been undertaken in Singapore.
