you will get it when you see it, but I put the screwdriver in the center of the pad, and pried against the rotor/caliper to get the piston seated, clean up the rusty/grungy area with a sawzall blade and put in the new pad, then go to the other side.
only do one wheel at a time, so you know how to put the springs and pins back in... unless you have an ate on one side and a bendix on the other... then it gets fun. take pictures before you start if you don't think you will be able to remember how to put it back together.
