Honestly, the things it sounds like you're doing are great. I'd rather have my lecturer be dry and provide all the resources it sounds like you do than the opposite. Really, the biggest thing for me is making sure the lecture is properly contextualized. I can get the big picture of the lecture but I never can really pay attention for the full thing, so I tend to learn best from reading the material from my own. My favorite courses have been where the professor gives a good intuition as to why the content matters and how it relates to the greater body of work for that reason. Details can happen on my own time.
