[LM_NET] HS-Research help

[Marie Baker <bakerm@MARLBOROSCHOOLS.ORG>]

I'm preparing a pathfinder to help English 9 and 10 students with a research 
project that will invite them to compare two products and prove which one is a 
better purchase. For example, iPod vs. MP3 players of other kinds or plasma vs. LCD 
TVs, Honda Civic vs. Volkswagen Jetta, etc. My Ebsco databases are a fine source of 
info for all the topics, except the one the teacher seems to have designed for the 
girls in her classes: clothing/accessory brands like Coach vs. Dooney and Bourke. 
I've searched my databases exhaustively and used Google as creativley as I can, but 
I simply cannot come up with anything substantive on this type of brand name 
comparison. Students are required to compare cost, availability, 
advantages/disadvantages, appeal and consumer reviews. Does anyone have any 
suggestions?
