Hills and sped and gears, oh MY!

Can someone explain to me, in plain English, when I should be in different gears? I mean, lets say going UP hill, should I be in a lower gear to make pedaling harder or in a higher gear to make pedaling seem like I'm spinning? Im just so confused with this gear thing. It seems like when Im going uphill, I try to make it as easy as possible, but then it seems like I am pedaling a hundred miles per hour, but going nowhere. Is this how it is SUPPOSED to be done?

GOD, Im a NOOB!
