During the COVID–19 pandemic, many activities were carried out digitally, including storing batik motifs to maintain the cloth pattern's sustainability. The samples were Batang Batik motifs of grapes, Jamblang Papat and Kawung Jenggot. The study aimed to store batik motifs in the form of computer programs with turtle graphics algorithms to ease the batik motif delivery because of the smaller memory storage. Computer programmers are needed to create batik patterns similar to Batang Batik patterns. Python programming uses turtle graphics to paint curves and generate graphics. The results of this study indicated that Batang Batik motifs can be made using turtle graphics without losing the characteristics of the batik itself. This finding can be used for more efficient storage of memory. The quality was also good when it was scaled up and down. This study has successfully created Grape, Jambang Prapat, and Kawung Jenggot motifs using turtle graphics algorithms in Python. The picture quality of the turtle graphics-scaled reconstructed image was equivalent to that of a photo image.

The study examines the effects of social media (SM), online platforms (OP) and digital instruments (DI) on participants' communication and the structure of the participatory design processes (PDPs). It addresses a gap in the literature by exploring the potential of these SM and OP to enhance stakeholders' involvement in PDPs. Through a case study of a participatory children's furniture design project involving diverse stakeholders, including children, parents, scholars, specialists, industry, university and the community, the study investigates how SM, OP and DI facilitate enriched and expedited communication in PDPs. The paper discusses these tools' challenges and opportunities within a conceptual framework. A mixed methodology approach is employed for data collection, incorporating observations, surveys, interviews and various participatory activities. By examining the findings, the study seeks to answer two key research questions: How do SM and OP influence communication patterns in PDPs? What is the impact of these DI on the structure and dynamics of the PDPs? The study proposes an innovative approach to overcome associated challenges. The positive effects of SM, OP and DI can significantly reshape the nature of participation in PDPs, such as the number of participants, the duration of the process and budget limitations.

Junior designers may encounter difficulties when considering customers from a distinct generation who possess dissimilar physical and physiological requirements compared to their own. The understanding of the sensory and physical sensations of design is crucial as younger designers cater to the needs of future generations of users and consumers. Understanding includes both the factual and emotional components of the users' and the audience's genuine experiences. Together, these tools help junior designers consider user safety. Techniques for simulation, have been effectively used by the design industries, that combine cognitive thinking abilities with knowledge outputs to better understand users and their needs. It is essential to explore possible approaches to help junior designers improve cognitive and affective skills (including emotional changes). The effectiveness of simulation guidelines on teaching junior designers about human emotion management abilities and limitations was examined, as well as how affective skill development was influenced.
