The Student Needs Project aims to employ a blended learning environment to meet several learning goals: developing a growth mindset, digital literacy skills, collaboration abilities, and opportunities to give "Bridges out of Poverty." It plans to build a website cataloguing community-created "how-to" lessons not taught in school but important for future success. The project framework uses the Simcoe County D2L environment and various web 2.0 tools to enhance learning and develop digital proficiency, employing a business startup model to create a complex website and brand.
