<div class="item" ng-class="{'editing-item' : editing}" ng-repeat="todo in todos"> <input mg-modal="todo.completed" type="checkbox" /> <label ng-hide="editing" ngclick="helloWorld()">{{todo.name}}</label> <input ng-change="learningNgChange" ng-blur="editing = false;" ng-show="editing" ng-modal="todo.name" class="editing-label" type="text" />

            <div class="actions">
                <a href="" ng-click=" editing = !editing">Edit</a>
                <a href="" ng-click="helloWorld()">Save</a>

If you're calling a function you need parentheses after the controller function name, so learningNgChange should be learningNgChange().
