My own experience appears to still be the current experience according to several younger relatives now at University. Many "lecturers" read their presentations word for word. They add no value at all. The only change in three decades is that they are now presentation slides instead of overhead projections and that the audio can be downloaded instead of having to be checked out on cassette tapes :-) IMHO such lecturers should be sacked as teaching staff. As for penalising students who don't want to waste their time attending such lectures when they can just get the slide pack and read it in a quarter of the time - !
