23 Mar How to Add Videos to Google Earth Projects

Posted at 14:05h in education by

I’m currently developing a lesson plan that is loosely based on the reality television show, The Amazing Race. In my lesson students have to use a series of clues to find locations in Google Earth and then complete a task or challenge before adding a placemark to their Google Earth projects (tours). They have to record videos of themselves completing the challenge sand put the videos into the placemarks in their Google Earth projects. I created this short video to show students and teachers how to add videos to the placemarks in their Google Earth projects. 

In this video I demonstrate how to add videos to Google Earth projects (tours) in the web-based version of Google Earth. 

Applications for Education
While I created the video above specifically with my lesson plan in mind, the concept in the video can be used for any Google Earth project that your students are working on. 
Since YouTube has to be used to host the videos you want to include in Google Earth projects, I’m recommending using the “unlisted” option in YouTube for any videos that feature students. In this video I explain how to use the unlisted option in YouTube.
