Handouts
At my University the term in use was rather handouts..
A dispensa is usually prepared by the teacher for the students, just like handouts.
The other solutions make me think of something written by a student.

: Or handout(s). I think a "dispensa" is prepared by the teacher, not by a student. http://dictionary.reverso.net/italian-english/dispensa
