"Acceleration" means any change in the speed or direction of motion ... speeding up, slowing down, or turning.  So . . .

-- The distance traveled in a certain time may increase or decrease.

-- The displacement covered in a certain time may increase or decrease.

-- The speed of the object may increase or decrease.

-- The velocity of the object (speed/direction) will change.
