In a first angle projection, the object stands in between the observer and the plane of projection. In a third angle project, the object and the plane of projection is interchanged.

Third angle projection is in common use in the USA, Canada, and the UK. The rest of the world more commonly uses first angle. There is no inherent superiority of one projection over the other. When you are making drawings that may be used internationally, it's a very good idea to indicate by a small symbolic diagram which projection is in use. This diagram is usually a side and end view of a truncated cone.
Basically its just where you position the views of the main object, in first angle projection, if you view the object from the left, the view is drawn to the right of the object, in third angle projection, its drawn on the viewing side.
It is just where the elevation is positioned, first angle, the drawings is positioned to the right of the section and third, the elevation is positioned to the left of the section, obviously rotated the correct way too.
