Agile meetings are an essential part of modern software development, but they often face challenges such as lack of focus, communication problems, technological difficulties, and the like. Previous research has often addressed individual issues of agile meetings but has not provided sufficiently integrated or practical models to comprehensively address these challenges. This research fills this gap, developing a theoretical model that not only identifies key issues but systematically links them to provide a deeper understanding of their impact on meeting effectiveness.In this paper, we present a theoretical model that depicts intra-team problems in agile meetings developed through a systematic literature review (SLR). After initial development, the model was validated and improved through the qualitative analysis of semi-structured interviews with IT experts. This research aimed to confirm the coverage and relevance of the content of the preliminary model, as well as to identify the need for modification. The results of the interviews suggest that the presented model is adequate but that there is a need for potential improvement. IT experts agreed with the items in the model, and some of them suggested improvements. The model is promising because it illustrates the key issues that influence the effectiveness of agile meetings in a promising way. IT experts agreed on the items in the model, and some of them suggested improving the model.

For Agile methodologies, it is extremely important to have a well-established communication system. In addition to the daily meetings of the project team members, there are also meetings before the start and after the end of each development cycle, when the client needs to express his opinion, proposals, and suggestions based on the delivered part of the product. Due to the great importance of having meetings, it is necessary to analyze the problems related to meetings. In this paper, inductive thematic analysis of the data obtained through a systematic review of the literature was carried out. The analysis was carried out using the software tool QDA Miner Lite by creating codes to determine the themes that represent problems in Agile meetings. Through thematic analysis, we want to show which problems occur at meetings in an Agile environment. Finally, we develop and present a conceptual framework encompassing the problems found in Agile meetings. This literature review offers a conceptual framework with identified key themes found in the literature: Meetings last too long, information is not shared with all team members, negative attitudes toward meetings, and less time is spent on tasks. The conceptual framework aims to help researchers and industry practitioners by presenting the issues. Developing a conceptual framework is important because if the problems presented in the mentioned framework are noticed in time, we believe that it is possible to intervene in time and solve a certain problem, which would increase the efficiency of work. Researchers can see how to create a conceptual framework based on the thematic analysis of data as well as extend this conceptual framework with more problems that may potentially arise. Based on the research findings, we discuss research implications and propose directions for future research.

Given that most IT companies apply agile principles, a lot of attention should be paid to the problems that arise when applying those principles. Agile meetings are the core of agile methodologies and deserve attention from both researchers and practitioners from industry. The aim of this paper is to present a conceptual model of problems in agile meetings and their relationships with organizational issues in IT industry. Meetings’ problems are identified through literature analysis, and the model is based on the interpretation of identified problems and their relationships. In addition, agile meetings are situated in organizational contexts and presented model also includes relationships between agile meetings’ problems and organizational issues identified in the literature. Each meeting problem, an organizational issue and all relationships in the model are discussed. The presented model can be used as a starting point for more deeper and more comprehensive inquiry of agile meetings, as well as for the development of guidelines and software tools for managing potential problems in IT industry.

The aim of the research refers to the frequency of experiencing some form of electronic violence and mechanisms for protecting pupils on the Internet. Using a random sampling method, 744 subjects aged 11 to 18 years were examined. The sample in the research is designed to include upper elementary school pupils and secondary school pupils like vocational schools and gymnasiums on the territory of the Republic of Serbia. The research is conducted through an online questionnaire „Safe Internet usage among pupils” created for the purposes of the research, as well as the standardized The School Refusal Assessment Scale-Revised (SRAS-R) questionnaire developed by Christopher Kearney and Wendy Silverman. It is a psychological assessment tool designed to evaluate school refusal disorder symptoms in pupils and identify their reasons for avoiding school. It was found that there is a statistically significant correlation between cyber bullying and students' Internet usage habits with feelings about school and parental control of pupils. The results of this research give us an insight into the real state of the presence of violence on the Internet among pupils, as the connection of violence with other aspects of life.

The research aims to determine the extent to which the gender and age of adolescents have influenced their habits when using the Internet, as well as the purpose for which the Internet is used the most. For the needs of the research, a questionnaire "Internet use habits" was designed, which consists of two dimensions. The first dimension looks at the Intensity of Internet Use, and the second looks at the Purpose of Internet Use, through nine items: Entertainment, Social Networks, Games, Trivia, Tutorials, School, Forums, Adults, Blog, and Blogging. The sample in the research was designed to include students in grades 5-8 of primary school and secondary school students, aged 11 to 18. Respondents were selected using a random sampling technique (N = 744). The results showed that gender did not affect the formation of Internet use habits, as opposed to age, which significantly influenced the formation of these habits. The research also highlighted that the Internet was mostly used for fun, but also that the interest in educational content on the Internet had increased. The pedagogical implications are aimed at forming a relationship between professors and students based on students' attitudes toward Internet content. Since the Internet is something that adolescents use on a daily basis, it should be used as a tool in working with them.
