What kind of look are you going for? Slate or ceramic tile would typically need at least a layer of Durock screwed down ( if you current floor doesn't have much bounce to it) and then you could use thinset to bed the slate, let it set and then grout.
Sounds like you'll be in good shape then. Most local home improvement stores carry a pretty good selection of how-to books that can offer some good step by step instructions on doing tile work.
Good luck with the project and post up
Some pics when you finish!
