Research Papers for Seniors

Does anyone have suggestions for research papers for seniors using the Discover Writing principles. The Wacky We-search ideas are not suitable for what I need--a full-blown research paper involving notecards, bibliographies, and informatioon synthesized from several sources. In short, a typical research paper!

I thought about using the kernel essay structures to help them get started and figure out their direction for the paper.

Thanks for your help!!

I recommend the book,  The Curious Researcher by Bruce Ballenger.  It's a college textbook but loaded with great ideas for teaching research papers with voice.  Bruce is also on this Ning so you can write to him your questions.
