This paper views Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) from an educational perspective. Novice users of FCA who are not mathematicians might find diagrams of concept lattices counter-intuitive and challenging to read. According to educational theory, learning thresholds are concepts that are difficult to learn and easy to be misunderstood. Experts of a domain are often not aware of such learning thresholds. This paper explores learning thresholds occurring in FCA teaching material drawing on examples from a discrete structures class taught to first year computer science students.
