     Can we use PSPP (0.75) as an alternative to SPSS in a teaching 
university-ie-is it acceptable in journal publications as a recognized software?

I have published a paper reporting results which were generated
by PSPP (and noted in the text as such).

     Are there any teaching materials available that i can use to teach 
students PSPP?

There's a number of resources floating around on the web.  Some of the better 
ones
have links from the pspp home page.  In addition, there are some training 
videos at:

* http://www.communicationresearch.info/software/PSPP/basic.html
* http://blogs.cofc.edu/fergusond/2010/

Many SPSS tutorials should also be suitable for students using PSPP.
