• A More Perfect Union's Jack: A Visual Representation of the Journalistic Mission Within the American Democratic Experiment

Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences indicates that students who rely on their spatial intelligence need a visual model to comprehend new material. Teachers tapping a student's spatial intelligence should link new ideas to a visual image. This paper argues a child's game piece-a toy jack-can be used to illustrate the complex interaction of the press and the governing process in the United States, despite the contradictory elements found in both.
