You can follow this tutorial.

If you're new to Dependency Injection (DI), I think that's the only road block for your learning. Though, a separate tutorial is mentioned in the given link.

You can play around also with some source code to have a better grasp of MVC 3.

The answer to your question is very broad. There are a lot of techniques to architect your application in terms of how to get/set data and how to correctly separate concerns. But for the beginning, please understand the basic fact that MVC is a platform for web development and has nothing to do with data access. MVC provides you the infrastructure to build web application in a very efficient and straightforward way (relative to the old WebForms platform). But when it gets to data, the 'M' of MVC means 'Model', which folds behind it an infinite range of options to get to the data. It's best to actually do that in separate assemblies (and even not use the Model folder created automatically in a project by the New MVC Application visual studio template).

There is a great book to start learning MVC from, which covers some important architectural aspects like how to access the database and how to "componentize" your architecture and keep it maintainable.

This is the book: http://www.apress.com/9781430234043 Please note that under 'Source code/Downloads' tab you can download a ZIP with complete demo projects you can learn from.

Good luck!
