Abstract

This study explores the impact of using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) in statistics learning through an analysis of students' perceptions. Given the importance of statistics in various disciplines, understanding how SPSS affects students' learning outcomes and experiences is essential. Using a mixed-methods approach, quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews were conducted with students taking statistics courses that use SPSS. The findings of this study indicate that the application of SPSS makes a significant contribution to statistics learning, both in terms of usefulness and ease of use. These findings suggest that integrating SPSS into the statistics learning curriculum is an effective step to improve the quality of education in higher education environments.
