Transitioning from offline exams to an online exam mode can be hard for not only students but teachers too. The responsibility of creating a proper framework and making sure that everything goes smoothly falls on the teachers. The duty of the teachers is to oversee two things. First, students should be confident and prepared. Second, they should have well understood the process of giving online exams.
