What is Technology? 
It is the innovation, change, or 
modification of the natural 
environment in order to satisfy 
perceived human wants and needs. 
(Standards for Technological 
Literacy, ITEA, 2000) 
The goal of technology is to make 
modifications in the world to meet 
human needs. (National Science 
Education Standards, NRC, 1996)
What is Technology ? (Continued) 
In the broadest sense, technology 
extends our abilities to change the world: 
to cut, shape, or put together materials; to 
move things from one place to another; to 
reach farther with our hands, voices, and 
senses. (Benchmarks for Science Literacy, 
AAAS, 1993) 
Technology is the process by which 
humans modify nature to meet their 
needs and wants. (Technically Speaking: 
Why All Americans Need to Know More 
About Technology, NAE/NRC,2002)
Updated Definition of Technology 
• Technology is the modification of the natural world to meet to 
human wants and needs. It helps us to improve our health; to 
grow and processed food and fiber better; to harness and use 
energy more efficiently; to communicate more effectively; to 
process data faster and accurately; to move people and things 
easier; to make products to enhance our lives; and to build 
structures that provide shelter and comfort.
What is Engineering? 
“Design under constraint. Engineers design solutions to 
problems. However there are a set of constraints that we 
have to satisfy -- size, weight, reliability, safety, economic 
factors, environmental impact, manufacturability, and a 
whole list of “--bilities” (Wulf) 
the profession in which a knowledge of the mathematical 
and natural sciences gained by study, experience, and 
practices are applied with judgments to develop ways to 
utilize economically the materials and forces of nature for 
the benefit of mankind. (Accreditation Board for Engineering 
and Technology (ABET, 2002)
