【課程簡述】
Brief course description
認知神經科學（Cognitive Neuroscience）是一門新興的研究領域，主要是探索腦與心智（Brain and Mind）的關連性。從感覺與知覺（Sensation and Perception）、學習與記憶（Learning and Memory）、注意力與情緒 （Attention and Emotion）、同理與厭惡（Empathy and Disguise）、決策與執行（Decision-making and Execution）、乃至意識（Consciousness）的產生，都是認知神經科學的範疇。瞭解這些認知行為背後的神經科學不僅是本世紀最重要的一項科學探索，也與每個人的有密切的關係。例如：神經經濟學（Neuroeconomics）與消費者行為 及市場調查有關，退化性神經疾病（Neurodegenerative disorders）與老年失智症有關。
在本課程中，我們將依序探討認知神經科學中的主要課題，重點在於介紹最新的研究發展，並討論這些科學發現對個人及社會的衝擊。本課程將以 科學人雜誌過去所發表有關認知神經科學的文章為主，並以影片及期刊論文為輔，使無心理學或生物學背景的學生亦可學習此一課程。
Cognitive Neuroscience is an emerging academic field concerned with the relation of Brain and Mind. Topics such as: sensation and perception, learning and memory, attention and emotion, empathy and disguise, decision-making and execution, and consciousness, all belong to the field of Cognitive Neuroscience.Understanding the neuroscience behind these cognitive behaviors not only marks one of the most significant science discovery in this century but also deeply connects to individual’s daily life. For example, Neuroeconomics involves in consumer behavior and market research; Neurodegenerative disorders is related to Alzheimer's disease.
In this course we’ll introduce some main topics of Neuroscience in order, focusing on the latest research and development, and we’ll discuss the influence on society and individuals from these discoveries. Most of the learning materials come from articles about Cognitive Neuroscience on Scientific American of these years, supplied with films and periodical literature as auxiliaries, so students without psychology or biology background can also participate in this course.

本課程中將以神經科學領域中的感官系統為基礎，循序漸進介紹人類的感覺與知覺，包括視覺、聽覺、觸覺、嗅覺、味覺等。這些感覺系統是人類接受外界訊息的媒介，除了影響我們的理性與思考，也會觸動我們的情緒與記憶，因此是一般社會大眾會有興趣的科普知識，也很容易引起多數人的關心。本課程的目標是以生動的文字、圖片及影片引發大眾的好奇心，並以淺顯方式將艱澀的神經科學知識轉化成一般人均可理解的切身經驗，在體驗與感受的過程中輕鬆學習科普常識，並將這些知識應用於日常生活中。 In this course, based on the sensory system in the field of neuroscience, we will gradually introduce human sensations and perceptions including the sense of sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste. These sensory systems are the medium of human receiving external information which not only influence our rational and thinking, but also our emotions and memories. Therefore, it is a popular science knowledge that the general public will be interested in and can easily arouse most people’s concerns. The course objective is to trigger public curiosity with vivid text, pictures and videos. And transform difficult neuroscience knowledge into personal experience in a simple way that can be understood by everyone. Let us learn the popular and common science knowledge through experiences and feelings and apply this knowledge to daily life.

This is an introductory course on the theory of curves and surfaces in the three dimensional Euclidean space. After developing the theory of curves, we will study the geometry of a surface from both intrinsic and extrinsic point of view. Topics include first and second fundamental forms, various notions of curvature, and the famous Gauss-Bonnet theorem.

【課程說明 / Description of the course】
人類對於周遭事物，如何隨時間與環境而變化，都充滿好奇心。我們要如何用物理學推敲出萬物的變化，或基於系統性的觀察而提出新的想法，這就是普通物理(ㄧ)的課程目標。那要如何養成研究問題的邏輯與方法呢?本課程以牛頓提出的力學為例，除了學習力學定律之外，也鼓勵同學探討牛頓提出這些理論的原因，同時思考章節之間的關聯性，例如在牛頓的向量力學架構下，已經可以解釋物體的運動，為何還需學習新的能量概念等等。
課程內容涵蓋基礎牛頓力學、功與能量概念，在熟悉單粒子運動後，將建構簡單的多粒子系統（剛體）所遵守的物理規則（轉動運動），基於以上的物理知識，詳細探討日常生活中常見的物理現象，如重力、固體與流體、振盪、波動等。同時也將探討愛因斯坦為何會提出不同於牛頓力學的特殊相對論，以及在特殊相對論中架構下，為何在不同慣性座標系的觀察者們，對時間、空間的認知會有所不同。
