Teachers, particularly traditional teachers, are finding it difficult to cope with this
pandemic. The world stopped and the economy collapsed as all businesses

countries closed schools, colleges, and universities. Not only the health and
education sectors were affected by the crisis. During the pandemic's peak,

more likely to spread the virus, the most effective option is to teach and learn
online. This platform poses a challenge to both teachers and students because it

spread of the disease, teachers are introducing new rules, practices, and
classroom configurations. Others are designing brand new online curricula for
students who will be studying from home. They are forced to do so at the same
time, and with insufficient financial resources. Holding students interested is the
most challenging aspect of teaching online. To do so, their greatest need is for
the content. In the above mentioned point, the objective of this study is to craft an
action plan that can help both private and public school teachers in teaching
during this time of pandemic. The action plan will be based on the experiences of
among criminology students in modular and online classes and its degree of
seriousness. Actually, all the students are having a hard time not just the
criminology students but literally all the students who are taking online class and
studying, seems like everything is fine but most of us are also not aware to the
situation of every student and teacher. Stress are starting to attack individually

students who are decided to stop and pause for a year or years because of the

a researcher our goal is to give help to our co-students and dearest teacher on
