EmberJs: Setting a property of controller from within the view

Question

I am new to emberjs and wanted to set a controller property from within a Ember View. I have been trying to get around it but I am unable to set the controller property from the view. Here is a jsbin of what I am trying to do. http://emberjs.jsbin.com/kiteg/6/. In this app, I wanted to set keyword property to value 'red' from within the sort view. Can someone help me out in getting around it.

Thanks in advance.

You should be able to access your controller properties from the view with

this.get('controller.myProperty');

Same for setting it

this.set('controller.myProperty', 'new value');
