What Is Technology?

When I went to school, a few years ago, our techer posed a question to us.

He asked, What is the definition of technology?

He put one limitation on our class. We were not allowed to use the accepted definition in Merriam Webster's or any other dictionary.

No one could answer it, at that instant anyway. It threw most for a loop.

Now, I will through in a 'Bonus' question to top it off.

Can anyone define it in two words?
