Abstract:	This paper proposes a comprehensive mobile learning model in the context of smart classroom environment as a part of a holistic approach to implement an efficient Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) environment. In this proposed model, the components of the mobile learning as being essential parts of a smart classroom and systematically integrate the mobile features with teaching and learning environment. However, there are many challenges to generalize about this type of learning in any educational system. One of the major causes of these challenges is the lack of an integrated model in a holistic approach to smart classroom and TEL environment. Another critical challenge is not adopting an efficient m-learning inside the smart classrooms. In addition, incorporating many pedagogical and technological elements becomes a new dimension of complexity. The new model is introduced not only to implement a holistic m-learning approach capable of overcoming these challenges, but also to assist the schools and the stakeholders responsible for the national e-learning initiatives.
