To determine how SPSS can be a useful tool to evaluate Course Learning Outcomes and analyze students performance with the help of KS test, histogram and skewness of the tool. It is also contributing to facilitate Deep learning amongst students with the help of achievement of normal distribution of grades. Comparative analysis is done using course specification, syllabus, assessment method(Final Exam Question paper is taken as tool) and result statistics for the course of STATISTICAL PROGRAMMING (217 CSM), 3rd year (level 5 course) that is part of BCS curriculum in department of Computer Science, College of computer Science in King Khalid University. Teaching strategies are compared for two years. 2013 and 2014. Moreover the research inferences the relevance of application of NCAAA standards in meeting Learning outcomes of any module for department of Computer Science, CCS, KKU. Comparison of question papers depict that now students are motivated to have deep learning in terms of understanding, solving, reasoning based questions as contrast to shallow learning (memorized questions) in the past. It is indeed improving Learning domains too (Knowledge, Cognitive, Interpersonal and Communication skills) more effectively than in the past. Also grade distribution is Normal with well-defined curve for 2014 as compared to 2013 having variation in Standard deviation too. Teacher centered learning lead to surface learning. After NCAA standards implementation, there is more focus on learned centered teaching. Design of learning assessments is in such a way that it should meet learning outcomes successfully. The research is contributing in flourishing the personality of the students to produce qualified graduates with excellence in communication, logically and technically capable enough to share their knowledge nationally and internationally with much more confidence at any platform. Also it is opening door for researchers to evaluate their performance with the help of SPSS in academics or anywhere where we want to gather.
