Rules of knowledge formulation for Incremental Reading
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: 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
