This case study is an individual depth interview of qualitative research, aims to understand this teenager--Ming. He uses TV and computers heavily, has an inborn inability to learn, and when he comes back home, there are always no parents accompanying. However, he continues to use a computer to consume and learn things, and the reasons of this phenomenon are interesting. This study consults Bourdieu's suggestion, analyzing the Internet environment and the teenager himself at the same time. The study finds out that the texts of Net design contain multiple elements of consumption and fashion, which draws Ming to learn. More, though Ming himself can't learn written languages, he finds a sense of identity in the world of online dance learning, and this positive way of learning makes him not only just spend time on the Net, but also enhance his cognitive learning and self-efficacy. In the former, he elevates his learning from knowledge to integration; in the latter, he enjoys the online contexts, masters his way and pace of learning, shows himself creatively, finds out his models from the society, and even develops a positive outlook o life.
