With the advent of incremental reading, the rules have been modified, and re-prioritized. Changes of formulation strategy in incremental reading:
- building comprehension may be part of the learning process, and creating cloze deletions on poorly understood phrases is acceptable
- learning and memorization may occur in parallel.
- early in the learning process, items may be complex. They get simplified incrementally depending on knowledge priority, and the available time.
- multiple cloze deletions on different formulations of the same statement may often substitute for mnemonic techniques (Knowledge darwinism).
- lists, sets, and enumerations can be easily tackled with cloze deletion.
- for personalization, add your own stories to texts that you learn. Elaborate creatively.

Meta rule: Pleasure of learning
A simple and universal litmus test for a good formulation is pleasure of learning. Each time you see a drop in pleasure, come back to this text and see if you can find a rule violation that might be responsible for the decline in fun.PiotrWozniak
Meta rule: Applicability
We should strive at maximum applicability of knowledge. Human intelligence is based on knowledge, of which abstract knowledge plays a particularly important role. Abstract knowledge is based on rules, such as 2 plus 2 equals 4. Such rules may be employed in multiple contexts and contribute to problem solving capacity. Rules are more useful than facts. For example, it is more useful to know that 2 plus 2 equals 4(rule) than to know that a friends' phone number beings with 4 (fact). Rules and formulas are more applicable than facts.PiotrWozniak
Meta rule: Simplicity
In representing knowledge, we should always strive at formulating atomic memories set in a good context of comprehension. If learning is enjoyable, items are probably formulated pretty well. The picture explains why simple memories are easier to retainPiotrWozniak
