 What is FAIR Principles of Effective Learning? FAIR stands for Feedback, Activity, Individualization, Relevance. We need to give feedback to students as they progress to mastery of the expected learning outcomes. Activity, we need to engage the student in active rather than passive learning. Individualization, we need to relate the learning to the needs of the individual student. And relevance, we need to make the learning relevant to the students in terms of their carried objectives.
