How to Prepare for a Lecture:
Ideally, the process of preparing for a lecture should be:
[Lecture slides] - [Textbook] - [Reading materials/case + articles] - [Lecture]
However, it is often difficult to complete all these preparations before class, and some instructors may only release the PPT half an hour before the lecture. Discussions about articles are mainly concentrated in tutorials.

Therefore, a more practical approach is:
1. [Lecture slides (if available)/previous year's lecture slides] to understand the basic logic flow of the lecture.
2. Simultaneously refer to the [textbook], skimming through it and paying special attention to the structure and key cases.
3. Based on the above content, create a mind map and prepare a draft of lecture notes.
