well what my teacher was just telling me was its an dc motor :o so woould i use a motor shield to hook it up?

so itd be a bad idea to put in the arduino directly?

http://www.solarbotics.com/products/gm3/ theres a like to the type of motors im using and basically what im asking is that ive tryed many tuturials on how to learn but im stuck on how exactly to set it up and program.... i need a point to start basically, becuase this motor only has a positive and negative wire :o andd the servos have three wires to set up so i have no idea how to set up this kind of motor

Also its with the arduino uno! :-X

I'm new at this and still ealrning alot of stuff but I find myself having extreme difficulty with this :'(

Am i To late !
