Understanding the Theory of Einstein’s Special Relativity Based on the Coherence of the Theoretic System

Weinberg (1992) supported “Rigidity in physics theory”. This is a method which does not allow even the smallest quantity of change without a large scale overturning in the coherence network, and represents solidity at a level where the pieces of the theories themselves can be pieced together. In order to maintain coherence between theories, it is an inevitability and necessity for the solid description of theories of nature. Assumptions and premises, which are important elements comprising conceptual frames, play an important role when we form new concepts. The process of the coherence between component theories in a conceptual frame increasing through these assumptions or premises functioning as axioms to derive new theoretical theses is a characteristic of the formation process of the principles of Einstein's special theory of relativity. The purpose of this study is to make a proposal regarding appropriate education of the special theory of relativity through this process of increasing overall coherence. It is a cyclical and ecological learning method and not a linear and mechanical learning method. The research problems following this purpose are: preliminarily, to understand the characteristics of Einstein's special theory of relativity which has coherence between all the theories, and ultimately, to make a proposal on the education of the special theory of relatively through increases in coherence.
