We'll see how it goes. I think this is significantly different than either Nittany Notes or posted instructor notes. Some hand out partial notes, outlines, or graphs with space for notes below so that students have some but not all the information they need. One faculty member occasionally puts her notes on the class Web page the day after the lecture simply as a model. However, she cautions that when students skip class and try to study for the test using notes downloaded from the Web, their scores tend to be much lower than those of students who came to class and took their own notes.
Many teachers put outlines of their notes on the Web page.
This encourages students to come to class, but it makes them more selective in their notetaking since they know what key concepts are. Some publishers will copy a packet of instructor notes and shrink wrap these notes to the textbook at no extra charge to students. The disadvantage is that students must buy new textbooks in order to get the free notes. I actually listened to my own lecture and tried to take notes from it, and I found myself jumping around a lot. Before class starts, display an overhead with key words or an outline for the upcoming lecture.
