I’m Feeling Lucky – A Google Earth Lesson

From trips to video games to basic measuring tools, the web version of
Google Earth has a lot of neat features that can help trainees find out about the world. One of those neat functions is the “Im Feeling Lucky” button that is discovered on the left hand toolbar in Google Earth. Clicking that button will take students to a randomly-selected location worldwide..

On its own the “Im Feeling Lucky” button offers an excellent way for trainees to find brand-new locations. That stated, students find out more through the “Im Feeling Lucky” button if you offer them a little bit more instructions than just “click the button and browse.” Thats why I created a little question sheet to prompt trainees to do a little research study about the places they find in Google Earth by means of “Im Feeling Lucky.” My question sheet can be discovered here as a Google Doc..
This short video shows how students can explore Google Earth in more detail after clicking “Im Feeling Lucky.”.
