all a hacker is is someone who likes to work things out .. basically learn all about something (in this case a computer, its programs and networks) the ins and outs and how it all works and become a master of the overall system. It is not just computers either it might be anything .. you can be a hacker of anything whether it be a computer, computer network, car or anything ....
well according to me hacker is a person is more knowledgebale the the system administrator.we shoould say that he is a bad guy , but he ia a guy who knows more about your system sitting some thousand miles away than you sitting infront of it.
we should say he is a bad guy? <-- no way ... knows more than the sysadmin? <-- geez...... thats totally irrelavent and not necessarily so
Tell her hackers are evil. She can't run, she can't hide, because no matter what she does, we're gonna get her. Muahahahahahaa. :)

Not all hackers are bad guys (that's a media stereotype, so don't be stereotypical please) and not all of them are smarter than system admins. Some system administrators (especially ones who visit AO :D) are knowledgeable about what to defend against and what's out there.
And...some sysadmins are hackers :P

A hacker in my mind is one whom desires to know everything they can about the computer and how it works, and who understands that there is always more to know.
And why should you care what your teacher thinks? If she wants to sterotype thats her issue, not yours
