From voyages to games to simple measuring tools, the web version of
Google Earth has a lot of cool functions that can assist trainees learn more about the world. Among those cool features is the “Im Feeling Lucky” button that is found on the left hand toolbar in Google Earth. Clicking that button will take trainees to a randomly-selected place in the world..

By itself the “Im Feeling Lucky” button provides a great method for students to discover new locations. That stated, students learn more through the “Im Feeling Lucky” button if you provide them a bit more instructions than just “click the button and take a look around.” Thats why I created a little question sheet to prompt trainees to do a little research study about the locations they discover in Google Earth by means of “Im Feeling Lucky.” My question sheet can be discovered here as a Google Doc..
This short video demonstrates how students can check out Google Earth in more information after clicking “Im Feeling Lucky.”.
