The 900 students arriving in Boston this summer for their two-year course were told that they would be subjects.

But the man responsible, Nitin Nohria, who became dean of HBS in July 2010, says that "if it works, the FIELD method could become an equal partner to the case method."
但是這個項目的負責人,也就是2010年當選哈佛商學院院長的尼廷·羅利亞說,如果這項實驗成功,那么FIELD將成為與個案研究同等重要的學習方式。

The most successful, as voted by their fellow students, will get more funding.

The experiment does not come cheap, adding 5-10% to the course's cost, which HBS will bear while it figures out what works.
