Maven “Module” vs “Project” (Eclipse, m2eclipse plugin)

I’m a beginner at Maven and I’ve played with it from a command line point of view a little, so now I was trying to use it in Eclipse; I installed the m2eclipse plugin to do so.

But I’m stumped from the very beginning! Apparently I’ve missed a bit of terminology somewhere along the line. I can’t keep track of all these new Maven terms… What is a Maven Project, and what is a Maven Module? These are my options when creating a new project in the Maven category in Eclipse.
