• Dissecting success stories on mathematical problem posing: a case of the Billiard Task (2013, methodology): “similar observation can be made regarding the distinction between data-driven exploration and hypothesis-driven exploration made by Cifarelli and Cai (2005), when applied to the presented data.”
• Problem-posing research in mathematics education: new questions and directions (2013, background): “Although various studies have analyzed the reasoning processes of students as they solve well-structured problems, only a few studies (e.g., Cifarelli & Cai, 2005; Nohda, 1995; Ponte, 2007) have focused on illustrating and explaining characteristics of the solvers' mathematical explorations in…”
