General Physics Data (National Taiwan University)Type Collection Collection Identifier c0033 Alternative Title Data of the General Physics Laboratory Description Having passed through a long history—from inheriting the hand-made or antiquated laboratory apparatuses in the age of Taihoku Imperial University and receiving an abundance of equipment during the period of U.S. aid after Taiwan’s retrocession, to designing, retrofitting and producing apparatuses for educational purposes on its own—the development of the Physics Department of National Taiwan University (“NTU”) has assumed a representative role in the entire trajectory of Taiwan’s general physics experiments in education, and it thus takes on vital historical importance.The Digital Archive Project of the NTU General Physics Laboratory primarily contains the concrete apparatuses and resources used in general physics experiments in the Physics Department of National Taiwan University. The project aims to preserve and restore Taiwan’s general physics devices and experiment contents from earlier times, allowing antiquated apparatuses to run once again, and giving today’s physics students a glimpse of the experiments conducted by their predecessors, who had begun from zero, and of the invaluable shared notes and manuscripts written in the original language. These manuscripts encompass students’ class notes, experiment reports, and so forth.General Physics data contains accounts of the purchase of laboratory apparatuses, laboratory-related announcements, official documents, test papers, and so forth. Size Accounts: 3 articles; informal petitions: 3 articles; announcements: 3 articles; test papers: 3 articles; project proposals: 1 article; questionnaires: 1 article; register books: 1 article; official documents: 1 article (concrete objects/data). Ac Language English;Chinese Item Type Text; still image Item Format image/jpeg Rights Accrual Periodicity Irregular Custodial History The plan of the NTU General Physics Laboratory dates back to the establishment of the Physics Department more than sixty years ago. From the physics lectures in the old department building in the age of material scarcity to the construction of the Condensed Matter Science and Physics Building, the department has witnessed a series of reforms and innovations, all credited to its predecessors. This long process may be observed in such well-preserved data as official documents, course lists, test papers, and course details, which make possible a precise explanation of the historical context.
