This study reports the first stage of a three-­stage experimental approach to measuring learning outcomes in higher education. It investigates the extent to which students’ responses to a word association task change after they have completed a semester‐long specialized course in rural geography, and focuses in particular on their acquisition of academic and policy terminology and professional world view.
