Partial not finding variable


Hello - am still very new and need any help available

I have a user model

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :calls
  has_many :visits
  has_many :calls_visited,
    :through => :visits,
    :source => :call

  has_many:calls do
    def recent
      find :all, :order => 'id DESC', :limit => 5
    end
  end
end

and I have a view to display the calls for a particular user using
a partial
The view is

<div id="top_full">
    <h2>My Dashboard - <%= @current_user.login.capitalize %></h2>
</div>
<div id="c_left">
	<div id="recentCalls">
		<% if @current_user.calls.blank? %>
		    <h3>You have no calls</h3>
				<ul>
					<li><%= link_to 'Add a call to get started!', { :controller =>
"calls", :action => "new" } %></li>
				</ul>
		<% else %>

                        <h3>My Recent Calls</h3>
                                <%= render :partial => 'user/
recentCalls', :collection => @current_user.calls.recent %>
			</ul>
		<% end %>
	</div>
	<div id="recentVisits">
			<% if @current_user.visits.blank? %>
			    <h3>You have no visits</h3>
					<ul>
						<li><%= link_to 'Add a visit to get started!', { :controller =>
"visits", :action => "new" } %></li>
					</ul>
			<% else %>
			    <h3>My Recent Visits</h3>
				<ul>
					<% @current_user.visits.each do |c| %>
					    <li><%= link_to c.name, {:controller => 'visits', :action =>
'show', :id => c.id} -%> - <em><%= c.date %></em></li>
				    <% end %>
				</ul>
			<% end %>
	</div>
</div>

<div id="c_right">
	<%= render :partial => 'dashActions' %>
</div>

and the partial that doesn't work is the user/recentCalls partial

<li>

	<h5><%= call.created_at.to_formatted_s(:long) %></h5>
        <h4><%= call.name %></h4>
</li>

when the view evaluates <% if <at> current_user.calls.blank? %> it goes
through to the

<%= render :partial => 'user/recentCalls', :collection =>
@current_user.calls.recent %>

and throws an  error NameError in User#dashboard

Showing user/_recentCalls.rhtml where line #3 raised:

undefined local variable or method `call' for #<ActionView::Base:
0x2658158>

Extracted source (around line #3):

1: <li>
2:
3: 	<h5><%= call.created_at.to_formatted_s(:long) %></h5>
4:         <h4><%= call.name %></h4>
5: </li>

Trace of template inclusion: /user/dashboard.rhtm

Any ideas on why it doesn't get the call?  I've tried
current_user.call.created_at..... and @current_user and @call et.  .
Anyway any help will be appreciated
