Most Pleased WithMost Pleased WithTutorial:
We really liked the end result of the entire project!
Hypermedia:
Finding ways to incorporate interactivity with our learning objectives/topics (i.e. the price match to teach the cost of ownership, the maze to engage the learner in lessons on losing your dog and preventing loss)

SummarySummary
Hypermedia seems to have a greater appeal to people, but we feel that combining the information from the tutorial and the interactivity and entertainment of the hypermedia would help people engage in learning. It is a shame to see information overlooked due to the attractiveness of the hypermedia items.
