velocity a vector quantity that has both speed and direction...
uniform velocity is a body's speed and direction is not changing... thus, has zero acceleration...
variable velocity is either the boddy's speed or direction is changing or both speed and direction is changing... this means that the acceleration of the body is non-zero.... it may be constant acceleration or also varrying...

speed is scalar, only with magnitude...
velocity is vector both with speed and direction...
acceleration is vector, to say A CHANGE in speed or direction...

You must be speaking of a physics course, learning the various movements.
There are two types of movements:
Movement UNIFORME: the velocity is constante, and the acceleration is 0.
Movement ACCELERATED/DECELERATED:
if accelerated UNIFORMLY, the velocity increases as
V = a * t (Velocity = acceleration x time)
if decelerated, the velocity decreases as the "acceleration" is Negative.
Note: if the acceleration is NOT a constant, we can only speak of a "variable" movement.

in the uniform velocity the acceleration is constant and in the variable velocity the acceleration is variable.
