1. A computerized teaching system providing a teaching tool for presenting and teaching step by step solutions to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) questions, the system comprising: a communications network; at least one teacher computer operable by a respective teacher; at least one student computer operable by a respective student; and at least one computer-readable storage medium; wherein each of the at least one teacher computer and the at least one student computer includes an input device and a touch sensitive screen for receiving handwritten input via the input device; wherein the at least one student computer is operably connected to the at least one teacher computer via the communications network; and wherein the at least one teacher computer and the at least one student computer are operatively linked to the at least one computer-readable storage medium containing program instructions for implementing an application of the teaching system comprising one or more program instructions for performing the steps of: (a) receiving at least one question description being handwritten in algebraic math notation by the teacher on the touch sensitive screen of the at least one teacher computer and being displayed thereon; (b) highlighting the math notation of the at least one question description defined in step (a) using a first highlighting color to provide a highlighted math notation of the at least one question description; (c) displaying the highlighted math notation of the at least one question description of step (b) on the screen of the at least one student computer; (d) receiving at least one step of a step by step solution to the at least one question description, the at least one step being handwritten by the teacher in algebraic math notation on the screen of the at least one teacher computer and being displayed thereon; (e) highlighting the math notation of the at least one step in step (d) by either using the first highlighting color in step (b) if the math notation of the at least one step of step (d) is the algebraic equivalent of the math notation of the at least one question description of step (b) or using a second highlighting color if the math notation of the at least one step of step (d) is not the algebraic equivalent of the math notation of the at least one question description of step (b) to provide a highlighted math notation of the at least one step, the first highlighting color being different from the second highlighting color; (f) displaying the highlighted math notation of the at least one step of step (e) in one of the first highlighting color and the second highlighting color on the screen of the at least one student computer; and (g) repeating steps (d), (e) and (f), if necessary, to provide and display on the screen of the at least one student computer a completely color coded step by step solution to the at least one question description.
