Reference excerpt

The National Museum of Marine Science and Technology (NMMST; traditional Chinese: 國立海洋科技博物館; simplified Chinese: 国立海洋科技博物馆; pinyin: Guólì Hǎiyáng Kējì Bówùguǎn) is a museum of marine science and marine technology in Zhongzheng District, Keelung, Taiwan. It received 1,395,127 visits in 2016.

History

The museum building was originally constructed as the North Thermal Power Plant in 1937 by the Japanese government, the first power plant in Taiwan constructed on a reclaimed land. The power plant was decommissioned in 1981 and left abandoned. In 1990, the planning committee to establish the museum was set up, in which in 1997 the preparatory office was subsequently established as well. In 1999, the Executive Yuan approved the construction plan for the museum. In 2001, the plan to convert the former power plant into a museum was unveiled. The building was designated as a historical building in 2004 by Keelung City Government. The museum was opened by Premier Jiang Yi-huah on 26 January 2014.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with National Museum of Marine Science and Technology

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what National Museum of Marine Science and Technology claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to National Museum of Marine Science and Technology before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about National Museum of Marine Science and Technology ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of National Museum of Marine Science and Technology

In research: National Museum of Marine Science and Technology appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses National Museum of Marine Science and Technology in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: National Museum of Marine Science and Technology is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2014 establishments in Taiwan, Former power stations, Museums established in 2014, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for National Museum of Marine Science and Technology outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
