Room treatment

The idea of room treatment is what exactly? I kind of get the idea but is it mainly for allowing your monitors to playback without any unwatned room reverberations/frequencies?

I record and monitor/mix in the same room. At the moment its untreated and i assume hanging carpet everywhere wont benifit me much. I have a mic about 1 ft away from a plain wall. On the wall is a wooden shelf about eye - level so the mic sits underneath in a kind of 'cubby' with no sides. Would anyone recommend I place some sort of acoustic tile against the wall so im singing right at it?Or on the underside of the shelf to make a kind of open 'booth'? How will this benifit a vocal performace?

Yes, in actual fact im a complete noooooobie at this stuff. (betcha couldnt guess). I've just been reading around this forum and treatment of rooms seems to come in higher regard than buying a new signal chain for getting quality results for some and is my room is completley untreated.....!??
