[LM_NET] need a cleaver way to introduce research project to 10th grade

Help!

I have been working with the sophomore English teachers the last few
years with their persuasive research paper.  Now they have a new request
from me.  Since I am so excited about research and writing, how can I
excite their students to begin the research paper?  They have given me
one day to "pump up the class".  Any great ideas besides donning my
fairy wings and sprinkling research pixie dust on the class?  I was
thinking of creating a Jeopardy game about research/library.

Any cleaver ideas would be appreciated.
