Scientific practice is procedural, systemic and presupposes the discovery of reality. Learning through investigative processes is training, education, and enhances multiple learnings. In this case study, descriptive-analytical, of a qualitative nature, it aimed to analyze the possibilities, limits and perspectives for learning by investigation within the Research Initiation Program. Highlights as theoretical and analysis categories: PIBIC and research knowledge. The data were generated by the semi-structured questionnaire with four scholarship recipients of the notice / 2019, from the Federal Institute of Piauí, Campus Piripiri and by the cut in the projects that bring the act of research as an object of study. Therefore, it becomes evident as to the possibilities for learning with research through the Program: development and deepening of studies, improvements in academic work, importance of scientific rigor and systematization of knowledge. The scholarship recipients point to the strengthening of research knowledge, personal and professional curriculum. Of the five projects approved by PIBIC, only one brings the act of research as the object of study, which was the focus sought. PIBIC is considered as an articulator of research knowledge and learning as investigative possibilities, minimizing the limiting aspects.

This article reports the findings of a study undertaken in the spring of1997 of a workplace ESL program offered at a rubber parts manufacturing plant in Toronto. The purpose of the study was to recommend changes in program delivery that might facilitate and encourage employees to enroll in the ESL program. The premise of the study was the belief that given appropriate circumstances and conditions, all employees can be motivated to participate. This premise was supported by similar research in the field that explored how various factors beyond the desire to learn may affect an individual's decision to participate in formal learning opportunities. In order to explore these factors, a questionnaire was distributed to employees. Based on the findings from this survey, the following recommendations were made. First, classes should be held during the working day and that part of the class time be paid for. This was to replace the cash incentive provided by the employer at the end of the program year. Second, the location of the lessons should be moved from the existing location, the cafeteria, to a meeting room. Last, the program should be strengthened by greater involvement of employees and employer in program development.

This report presents the findings from an EAP curriculum development project directed towards PhD students at Colombian university.An analysis of this stakeholder group’s learning needs was conducted through questionnaire research, focusing on (a) describing students’situated contexts and interests and (b) obtaining data contributing towards future program development. Measures of central tendency,dispersion, and internal consistency for each section of the questionnaire are reported. Key results include these students’ strong interest inEAP programming, their language needs and experience regarding their intellectual production, and their perceived importance of differentlanguage sub-skills in both the local and international contexts. The results highlight the importance of continued evaluation cycles and theimportant role EAP coursework has for PhD students today.

Freeway Service Patrols

Many studies have been conducted to describe and evaluate the benefits of freeway service patrols, but much less is known about the planning and institutional development of such programs. This case study describes the implementation of Tennessee’s freeway service patrols. In 1998 the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) began planning for patrols to operate on the highest-volume freeways in the state’s four largest cities—Chattanooga, Knoxville, Memphis, and Nashville. After a staged implementation plan, TDOT has successfully implemented the patrols, known as HELP, in all four cities while also moving forward with related intelligent transportation system and incident management initiatives. Five aspects of program development are described that have been especially important to the success of the program—teamwork, attention to human resource issues, comprehensive training, first-rate vehicles and equipment, and communications.
