Threshold knowledge is a term in the study of higher education used to describe core concepts that once understood, transform perception of a given subject〔Meyer J H F and Land R 2003 "Threshold Concepts and Troublesome Knowledge – Linkages to Ways of Thinking and Practising" in ''Improving Student Learning – Ten Years On''. C.Rust (Ed), OCSLD, Oxford.〕 or one can describe individual threshold concepts. The theory was introduced by Jan Meyer and Ray Land, who have published frequently on it.〔〔''Threshold Concepts within the Disciplines'', edited by Ray Land, Jan H. F. Meyer and Jan Smith Sense Publishers, Rotterdam, 2008 (Futures: Rethinking Theory and Practice, Michael Peters (Ed.), volume 16 ) ISBN 978−90−8790−267−4 (paperback), ISBN 978−90−8790−268−1 (hardback).〕〔Meyer JHF, Land R (2005).

(2005), Threshold concepts and troublesome knowledge (3): implications for course design and evaluation, in C. Rust (ed.), Improving Student Learning − equality and diversity, Proceedings of the 12th Improving Student Learning Conference. Oxford: OCLSD.〕 Meyer and Land also discuss the related idea of troublesome knowledge, ideas that appear alien or counter-intuitive.〔〔〔 These ideas have been explored by several subsequent researchers in a variety of disciplinary contexts.〔Korosteleva, E.
