Making Something Out of Nothing: Experiential Learning, Digital Publishing, and Budget Cuts
The Cube (publishing - process - praxis) is a publishing nexus housed in Michigan State University's Department of Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures (WRAC). The Cube supports, promotes, and produces open-access works created by diverse members of the mid-Michigan and Michigan State communities. Our publishing focuses on messages of social justice, accessibility, diversity, and inclusion. We provide a space for diverse voices to publish and advocate for their work and engage with audiences they would otherwise have difficulty reaching. This Poster, featuring The Cube's director, its graduate assistant, and its lead undergraduate web developer, will provide an overview of the work the Cube does, from brainstorming to final product, and show how we faced adversity and thought creatively in the wake of massive budget cuts to the humanities.
To access a PDF of the "We Are The Cube" poster, click here.
Description of the Poster
This poster is made using something similar to a mind map, with bubbles named “high-impact experiential learning,” “people,” “mentorship and community,” “projects,” “process,” and “skills.” Surrounding those bubbles are smaller bubbles with descriptions (described below).
We are The Cube.
Publishing - Process - Praxis
We are a publishing nexus that supports, promotes, and produces open-access work created by diverse members of the mid-Michigan community, focusing on messages of social justice, accessibility, diversity, and inclusion through high-impact experiential learning. We provide a space for diverse ranges of persons, places, and communities to publish and advocate for their work and to engage with audiences they would otherwise be unable to reach.
High-Impact Experiential Learning Circle:
Mentorship is key. Project proposals come to The Cube via our website; from there, we review projects and hire paid undergraduate and graduate interns to complete the work. At any given time, The Cube has between twelve and twenty interns, and our entire budget is dedicated to labor.
Throughout our processes, students are mentored by faculty members, encouraged to take risks and make mistakes, praised for their good work, and given credit for that work. For a full list of our mentors and interns, see our website: https://thecubemsu.com/.
Experiential learning programs allow students to take risks, make mistakes, and learn from those mistakes in a safe and supportive environment.
There are two goals. One is to learn the specifics of a particular subject, and the other is to learn about one’s own learning process.
Experiential learning works in four stages:
concrete learning,
reflective observation,
abstract conceptualization, and
active experimentation.
All of these are key for developing both hard and soft skills, which students will need to be ethical pioneers in their fields and in their communities.

📰 Chronicle of Higher Ed Launches AI Chatbot
The Chronicle of Higher Education has rolled out an AI-powered chatbot to help users navigate its vast archives and answer common higher ed questions. While details on its training data and accuracy are limited, this marks another step in AI’s growing role in academic media.
Learn More: https://www.chronicle.com/chron-faq
📕 New Book on AI and HE explores The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The good: AI is here to stay, so let’s make it work for students.
The bad: Convenience comes at the cost of deeper intellectual labor.
The ugly: AI risks shaping a culture of compliance—where decisions are guided by systems without consciousness or accountability.

❓ If You Teach AI Literacy, Don’t Forget to Assess the RAG as Well as the LLM
When LLMs use retrieval augmented generation (RAG), they can give more trustworthy responses. What does that mean? Ni and colleagues (2025) evaluate rages, using NIST’s list of essentials:
Reliability
Privacy
Explainability
Fairness
Accountability
Safety
Learn More: https://doi.org/10.4337/9781035326020
🤖 On the Horizon: More and More Automated Instruction, Less Faculty?
We should think critically before it’s too late. A study found students using an AI course tutor performed as well and were as satisfied as those in instructor-led courses. As publishers integrate AI tutors, instructors may rely on them more, reducing direct teaching.

Responding to conflict or a heated moment? Begin response statements with some combination of your levels of understanding and agreement:
I understand what you’re saying but I disagree with…
I don’t understand this element of your statement…
I agree with you on some of the things you’ve said, but in this way I disagree…
Help me to understand…
Check out the attached file for additional conflict resolution sentence starters "for Healthy Conflict" from Elena Aguilar's (2016) "The Art of Coaching Teams: Building Resilient Communities that Transform Schools" (published by Jossey-Bass).

ASK ME ANYTHING STARTS TODAY WITH Cheryl Caesar - Teaching Multilingual Students
Cheryl lived in Paris, Tuscany and Sligo for 25 years, earned her doctorate in comparative literature at the Sorbonne and taught literature and phonetics. She publishes poetry in the U.S., Germany, India, Bangladesh, Yemen and Zimbabwe, and last year she won third prize in the Singapore Poetry Contest for her poem on global warming. My chapbook Flatman: Poems of Protest in the Trump Era is available from Amazon.
I chose the topic of “Teaching Multilingual Students” because I have experience teaching EFL in Europe and ESL here, to first-year writing students. I am especially interested in using linguistic and cultural diversity as a pedagogical asset in the classroom
