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

By itself the “Im Feeling Lucky” button provides an excellent way for students to discover brand-new locations. That said, trainees discover more through the “Im Feeling Lucky” button if you offer them a bit more instructions than simply “click the button and take a look around.” Thats why I developed a little concern sheet to trigger trainees to do a little research about the locations they find in Google Earth via “Im Feeling Lucky.” My concern sheet can be discovered here as a Google Doc..
This short video demonstrates how trainees can check out Google Earth in more information after clicking “Im Feeling Lucky.”.
