Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity. Sports announcers will occasionally say that a person is accelerating if he/she is moving fast. Yet acceleration has nothing to do with going fast.
Acceleration is a change in velocity. The change can be in direction only (such as centripetal acceleration during uniform circular motion). Under these circumstances, velocity is changing but speed is not. So constant speed does not imply zero acceleration.
