Abstract | We present findings from an analysis of the Calculus Concept Inventory. Analysis of data from over 1500 students across four institutions indicates that there are deficiencies in the instrument. The analysis showed the data is consistent with a unidimensional model and does not have strong enough reliability for its intended use. This finding emphasizes the need for creating and validating a criterion-referenced concept inventory on differential calculus. We conclude with ideas for such an instrument and its uses.
