| Feb 15, 2015 at 20:37 | comment | added | James S. Cook | @BenoîtKloeckner agreed, I also write solutions (to tests and homework usually) by hand. But, my reason is less noble. I just don't have time to do otherwise :) | |
| Feb 15, 2015 at 20:23 | comment | added | Benoît Kloeckner | Not an answer, but related enough for a comment: I tend to handwrite solutions to tests, partly because I want students to see them as what they could have produced them themselves, as what a perfect but real answer would look like. Typed solutions feel too impersonal, too foreign to them. | |
| Feb 15, 2015 at 0:34 | comment | added | James S. Cook | I'm asking about notes prepared by the instructor for various course purposes (study guides, lecture notes, etc.). @Richard I do recall many physics talks given in hand-written slides, I think it may be more common in that sphere. | |
| Feb 14, 2015 at 23:02 | comment | added | Richard | Roger Penrose (famous physicist) does his presentations using hand-written and hand-drawn notes. It gives more flexibility of layout and a unique style to his presentations. I think it works for him, but I wouldn't do it for myself. | |

| Feb 14, 2015 at 21:35 | comment | added | Jessica B | Who are you thinking would create the notes? My understanding is that the big advantage of hand-written notes is that the students go through the process of hand-writing them (and, iirc, research says the process of hand-writing the notes even beats the process of typing them). | |
