... feeling excited, investigating learner's part (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

atingle

'feeling excited' is the definition.

'investigating learner's part' is the wordplay.
'part' indicates a hidden word.
'ATINGLE' is hidden in the letters of 'investigating learners'.

(Other definitions for atingle that I've seen before include "shivery" , "feeling prickly" , "Feeling thrilled" , "quivering with delight?" , "Being excited" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
