Pair up. Teach each other something that will take only a few minutes to learn. The lesson could be a skill, like how to put up a tent, or it could be intellectual knowledge, like a motto in Arabic. Demonstrate to the group what you’ve learned.
Knowledge has been considered power since the time of the Greeks. In some organizations some people try to gain power by hoarding knowledge. In a healthy organization, people are willing to share their knowledge and expertise freely. People realize that the more they learn from each other the more productive they are as a team.
