This sounds a lot like more homework, so I'll just point you in the direction I'd go.

Look into either pseudo-terminals (which are what the various X-based terminal emulators use so that the shell that they run works correctly), or look into pipes. Either will give you a file descriptor that you can read from to get the output from the program. (Pseudo-terminals also let you write to that FD and have that show up as input to the program; pipes require another pipe for this direction.)

Once you get the output from the command, you can drop it into the text-view widget line by line. I'd look for however gtk lets you get notified when a file descriptor is readable (GIOChannel perhaps?), and use that event to update the widget. Or however you end up organizing the data.
