Peer feedback is an essential component of the learning process in higher education and can significantly boost students' academic and personal development, resulting in more effective and engaged learning experiences. There are several strategies for implementing peer feedback, and it is crucial to choose an approach that is appropriate for the learners, considering the specifics of the module and the characteristics of the students. The action research aimed to investigate the impact of Collaborative Digital Tools on Peer Feedback in Enhancing Engagement and Interest in Numerical Activities Among Nontraditional HE Students. The study used a mixed approach to construct participant views on their learning experience following the intervention. Data collected were analysed to assess the effectiveness of Padlet as a feedback-providing tool. The results indicate that using Collaborative Digital Tools such as Padlet for peer feedback enhances students' confidence, Interest, and engagement and fosters a collaborative learning culture where students gain new ideas and work together to achieve common goals. Based on the action research findings, it is recommended that technological tools be incorporated into teaching and learning, particularly for adult learners.
