26,800 PointsHi Thomas, It's asking you to get the data typed into the input element and send it the log. To do this, you need to first use the $render method of the ngModelCtrl from within the link function.
ngModelCtrl.$render = function() {
console.log(ngModelCtrl.$viewValue);
};

3,972 PointsI'm confused. Why can't you just do something like console.log(myController.$scope.user.name)?
