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

Not all the staff and students were overjoyed to be experimented on.

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."
但是这个项目的负责人,也就是2010年当选哈佛商学院院长的尼廷·罗利亚说,如果这项实验成功,那么FIELD将成为与个案研究同等重要的学习方式。

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