Monday, the 1-year anniversary of the first Hour of Code, over 50 million students have tried the Hour of Code. President Obama kicked off the 2014 Computer Science Education Week with a new call to motivate students worldwide to try the Hour of Code.
He talked about Computer Science Education "No one's born a Computer Scientist. Becoming a Computer Scientist isn't scary as it sounds." he said. And he added "Don't just consume things, create things. Take an hour to learn more about the technology that touches every part of our lives."

He also practiced and learned a bit of coding. Congrats! :)
