RDP stands for Remote Desktop Protocol.

remote desktop is basically logging on remotely to a computer. working at your local computer but "doing stuff" on a remote pc, as if you were in fact in front of it.
sharing is basically making resources on your pc available to other users on the network. letting them access i.e. a folder that resides on your comp.
something like that.

Do you have your A+ Cert Skint? That might be a better start for you. If you do have your A+ already then the TechNotes webmster linked you to would be another great way to fill in some gaps you may have missed.
