• Tasks that may occasion mathematical creativity: teachers’ choices (2013, background): “Silver (1997) claimed that both problem-solving as well as problem-posing activities may encourage students to generate multiple solutions, in turn encouraging the development of creativity.”
• The education of mathematically gifted students: Some complexities and questions (2011, background): “Furthermore Silver (1997) and Sheffield (2009) address "creativity to all students" and consider solving problems and problem posing as main tools for the development of mathematical creativity in all the students.”
