It is time to incorporate Web 2.0 technologies into education programs. This site is designed specifically to support and empower NIEHS environmental health community outreach and education cores (COEC) with social media issues and topics. Get “PODelated”!!
So, what is podelation? It is not in a dictionary (yet), but this is what I think it would say:
Main Entry: podelation
Part of Speech: noun (verb = podelate)
Definition: A feeling or state of great joy and pride coming from podcasting in education.
Example: Sometimes at work Naomi is podelated and cannot focus on anything except ways to get podcasting incorporated within the university.
Etymology: 2007: While sitting on the couch watching the movie Baby Boom, Naomi received some kind of message and this new word came into existence.
Usage: By 2009, this word will become widely used. The possibilities are endless.
