Three-Act Structure is the way most modern plots are structured.
I've written about 3-act structure in my article on writing a good synopsis. Check it out here: www.wherethemapends.com/writerstools/writers_tools_pages/publishing_biz_pages/synopses.htm.
Here's someone else's definition of 3-act structure: www.cod.edu/people/faculty/pruter/film/threeact.htm.
And here's yet another one: www.writerswrite.com/screenwriting/lecture4.htm.
You'll notice that my article on synopses talks about a 5-act structure. You can use that, too, or any other method you want to briefly outline your proposed flow and structure for our story.
Okay, let's see what you've got! How are we going to make this story go?
