Minimal definition

"ncremental Reading is a method of learning that involves breaking down information into smaller parts and gradually studying them over time. It emphasizes repeated exposure to the material, using digital tools to manage the learning process effectively.

Defining Minimal Definition

This minimal definition captures the key elements of Incremental Reading with a simplified understanding without going into excessive detail or complexit

Semantics: minimal vs minimum

Piotr Wozniak uses "minumum" and I think "minimal" is more apropiate in this context. I also think semantics are important.

Minimal

Longman dictionary defines minimal as "very small in degree or amount, especially the smallest degree or amount possible."

Minumum

It represents a threshold or limit that must be met or exceeded.

Longman dictionary defines minumum as "the minimum number, degree, or amount of something is the smallest or least that is possible, allowed, or needed.". Dictionary.com defines minimum as "the least quantity or amount possible, assignable, allowable, or the like.".
