Anyone else disagree?

The course material describes a game where students break into groups and use coins for a game. The assessment/quiz says this does not use intrapersonal skills...I would argue that they need these to communicate their ideas. I would concede that it is the 'least good answer' but let's see who responds.

I think you were thinking "interpersonal". The activity heavily involved group communication.

I disagree with you. Intrapersonal is inside one person - what a single person thinks inside herself (like internal reflection). Interpersonal is between people. If interpersonal had been an option it would certainly be true as there were five people on a team - they would have to interact to solve the problem.

If I may, I believe their definition was phrased somewhat tricky.

Intrapersonal: Existing or occurring within the individual self or mind

Interpersonal: Existing or occurring between persons

It would seem to me that the students would definitely show interpersonal skills. Intrapersonal, to me, would imply they are doing the activity alone, without interaction.
