Non-membrane electrode-based technologies including CapMix andmixing entropy battery (MEB) produce electricity during a batch cycling, which means thesetechnologies have not been shown to operate on a continuous cycle considering the current stateof the art.

If this is true, judging all extra credit negativelywould be akin to concluding that all the “Star Wars” movies are poorly done after only seeing“Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace”. The manner in which extra credit is given iscertainly tied to its merit as a tool in higher education. When used appropriately extra credit canbe a versatile tool whether the goal is to introduce students to situations they will encounter inthe workplace (Reid & Gwinn, 1997), increase lecture attendance (Wilder, Flood & Stromses,2001), or make a connection between students and course material
