Unfortunately, I've been to many an instructional presentation where the
class notes that are passed out are just the presentation you are
watching. :-(

I'm not sure that's in any way unfortunate. There's always someone who
missed the presentation or someone who wants to archive the topics of
discussion. The printed presentation is fine for those purposes. At a
minimum, it can serve as the basis for follow-up questions.

What else would you prefer?

So much depends on the person doing the presentation. I've been to many
where all the presenter does is read the text from the slide. If that's
all they do, then why are you there?

I would prefer the presenter use the information from the slide as a
basis, a foundation, to present additional information, as you stated.
But, many don't. :-(
