The rubric was created by Rodney Stutzman and Kim Race, where it originated as the "EMRF" rubric in a 2004 article in Mathematics Teacher magazine. The only modification I've done other than upgrading the graphic, is to replace "F" ("Fragmentary") with "N" ("Not Assessable"), because in practice, students' association of the letter "F" with "failing" was hard to overcome.
