This paper describes a new initiative, Technology Works Enterprises (TWE), a radically different learning environment for low-income, at-risk adolescents. This article probes which aspects of the technological and educational infrastructure of Technology Works helped to make the project successful. It uses a case study of an individual and the developing learning culture to highlight these aspects. Finally, the paper discusses the implications of this project on approaches to vocational education.
