Why “Find Your Passion” Is Bad Advice for Students (What to Do Instead)

We often tell students to “find their passion”—but what if that’s the wrong starting point?

In this keynote clip from Igniting Passion to Purpose Through Project-Based Learning with AI Literacy, Dr. Jorge Valenzuela explains why passion isn’t required for purpose—and what educators should focus on instead.

You’ll learn:
• Why passion is not a universal starting point
• How curiosity and exploration lead to purpose
• Practical ways to support students through PBL and AI literacy
• How to design learning experiences that build clarity, not pressure

This message comes directly from real work with schools and districts across the country.

If you’re an educator or leader looking to strengthen core instruction and student engagement, this is for you.
