At Newcastle, students have printed copies of the slides which they annotate during the lectures.
Most slides have some blank space in which an annotation is written by the lecturer.
This is especially useful when presenting relatively intricate formulae, as it tends to slow the lecturer. The use of an OHP also helps to reduce the problem of talking away from the students.
