intellectual production
When you say "learn," don't you have the implicit image that knowledge is outside of you and you take it into yourself? However, knowledge that is outside of you, e.g., knowledge in textbooks, is "knowledge that someone has already created and circulated. Since knowledge can be replicated, at the time the knowledge is circulating, there will be a number of people who already have that knowledge. This means that even if you take in outside knowledge, that knowledge is unlikely to lead to differentiation. On the other hand, knowledge that is generated as needed in the field of actual application is highly valuable knowledge that is not in circulation and fits the situation in the field. In other words, the source of value is not the possession of knowledge, but the ability to create new knowledge. This would seem obvious if we consider a concrete example. Memorizing what is written in a programming textbook is not a source of differentiation; the source of value is the ability to create new programs in response to situations. It is natural, isn't it? This concept of "the ability to create is the source of value" applies to areas other than programming as well.
This "knowledge" is an abstract concept and needs to be made more concrete.
Knowledge in textbooks is "knowledge that is already in circulation.
Knowledge generated in the field of application is highly valuable. So there is value in "creating knowledge for the situation".
Knowledge must be proven by deeds.

When I used to translate it with Google Translate, it was translated as intellectual production, and I thought it didn't feel right. I believe that intellectual production does not have to be defined linguistically. Same with Wittgenstein's [Game Definition

They said roughly the same thing.

It's a long story, so I'll summarize.

I thought about what kind of title I would give to a compilation of what I had learned and thought about after reading various books, and came up with the title "The Intellectual Production of Engineers," but when I thought about it, I realized that I had never done any survey on intellectual production techniques. I realized that I had never done any research on intellectual production. So I'll list the ones that caught my eye when I searched for "intellectual production techniques".

EVERNOTE "Super" Intellectual Production
2011/2/26
Modern businesspersons are constantly required to output some kind of information, whether it is "new projects and ideas for work" or "information on a blog for personal branding". Business people are expected to be efficient in these tasks and to produce high quality output in as little time as possible.
Evernote is a "database of knowledge" and a "second brain" that can streamline your intellectual production. It will also enable you to draw out new ideas and inspiration that did not occur to you before!
Efficiency in generating output
Although you have chosen Evernote as the service to use, it appears that you are essentially focused on "extracting ideas from large amounts of data".
