In most cases, the date of the guilty plea will also be the conviction date. The sentence will begin that day unless there are other stipulations.
"Entering a plea" means the offiical declaration of your plea in the case in which you were charged (i.e.- 'enter' a plea of guilty - 'enter' a plea of not guilty).
This means that a plea as been entered and at the next court date the judge is gonna determine the length of the sentence.
It means "I do not wish to contest" or "no contest" for short.
If you (or your attorney), signed a plea agreement it means you have 'pled' guilty to a lesser offense than the one you were originally arrested for. You could withdraw your guilty plea to the lesser offense, but that just means the prosecutor will simply withdraw the watered down charge and charge you with whatever your original offense was.
"Projected" when used in this sense means that it is 'expected' that soemthing will happen. (e.g.: Because of the amount of evidence against him it is 'projected' that he will enter a guilty plea.)

It means that you formally and publicly acknowledge to the court that it was you that committed the offense with which you are charged.
The disposition date refers to the date that the case was disposed of, or adjudicated, in court. If you enter a plea, the disposition date will be that day. If you have a trial, the disposition date will be the date that the jury reads their verdict.
