If you want me to remember more than just some big picture, let me write it down. And if you let me write it down, please let me use my tools. Just teach people how to use tech right, the younger generation is surprisingly much better at this. I have a full screen white on black text editor and turn off the display while not typing (sometimes I even keep it off while typing). And yea, lectures... just gave me the stream so I can play it at double speed and repeat the interesting parts. The only things I need paper for are geometry, layout and surprisingly: math. With math for me it's super valuable to keep something like nested contexts. I write things down to free the brain for more, but need to be able to jump back in on demand. Easier on a 2D pane than in a linear way. With OpalCal/Soulver i tend to do more on the PC though, variables are damn nice.
