Providing students with instructor notes improves performance. A study published in Active Learning and Higher Education found that when students were provided with instructor notes either before or after the lecture they outperformed students who received no notes. Furthermore, student comments indicated that they believed receiving the notes positively influenced their learning. For the details of the study see “Impact of the provision and timing of instructor-provided notes on university students’ learning.”
