Fully updated for 2026, this complete and fully editable lesson supports OCR Creative iMedia R093 and focuses on developing structured evaluation skills through the “Dinner Technique” (Starter, Main, Dessert).

Designed for KS4 (Year 10), this lesson provides students with a clear framework for evaluating digital media products. Learners analyse examples of effective and ineffective design, identify strengths and weaknesses, and practise writing balanced, structured evaluations using accurate Creative iMedia terminology.

The Dinner Technique is modelled step-by-step, applied to real products, and then used by students to evaluate both peer work and their own projects. This directly supports higher-mark coursework responses and written assessment questions in R093.
