With the popularity of mobile devices, the reduce of mobile communication fee,the increase of mobile learning applications, and people’growing awareness of lifelong learning, mobile learning is coming into people’work,study and life in a formal or informal way . Accompanying, the research of mobile learning has attracted more and more attention of scholars and experts in the field.College students are greatly intestered in mobile learning.At the same time ,mobile learning also provide new method for learning college English.It also broadern the viewsight to personized learning and active learning via computer during the college English lesson. But we have not a useful mobile learning system, and the students also do not know how to choose the mobile learning method in different time and different places, and they also do not know how to integrate other learning style to mobile learning. Based on a large number of documents and tracking projects, we find the result that a solid and effective research must be on the basis of knowing many of the requirements of object and explore specific system function, types of media and the study and practice aiming at certain groups. Therefore, we can only do system research by the way of combining theoretical and empirical. In the meantime, we can find the system model supporting theory from advanced learning theory. It is worth learning the excellent reference model of digital learning system that it can ascend the quality of mobile learning system model.Aiming at exploring the M-learning System Model of College English , the paper firstly analyzes the relevant study of mobile learning both home and abroad, and then forms the foundation for M-learning System Model of College English from the aspects of the content and characteristics of mobile learning , theoretical model for mobile learning, and the conclusion form empirical research on mobile learning, on the basic of which, M-learning System Model of College English (MLMCE) is propose with the characteristics of micro-game, humanity, personalization. After that the paper discusses the architecture, function model and adaptive feature of MLMCE. In addition, we use the case of designing an English vocabulary mobile learning system to elaborate how to use MLMCE.The study work is as follows:(1) After the comparative analysis of the definitions and concepts related to mobile learning at home and abroad, we assume "Mobile learning is the further development of e-learning" and explore the content and characteristics of mobile learning, and make analysis of the characteristics of mobile learning from mobile devices ,mobile environment and mobile learning activities;(2) This paper analysis the contrasts the theory of activity learning, context learning, distributed cognition, conversation learning and so on. Based on the“Analysis mobile learning activity learning theory”of Sharples ,“interaction model of Individual cognitive and distributed cognitive”from Salomon and“Technical support learning sessions model framework”of Laurillard, the author come up with CAD.(3) Through three links of letting respondents experience mobile learning, fill in the questionnaire and accept depth interview experience by using mobile learning system“learn easy”, we understand lots of requirements for mobile learning system of college English and draw a series of meaningful conclusions;(4) Based on CAD theory model, empirical conclusions, the demands from College English new curriculum reform and the learning characteristics of college students, we propose an M-learning System Model of College English called MLMCE, and describe its architecture. In addition, we focus on the mapping function and functional design from the requirements aspects of CAD theory model, empirical conclusions, the demands from College English new curriculum reform and the learning characteristics;(5) Discuss the adaptive mechanism of MLMCE in detail. Firstly, we analyze adaptive principles of XAHM and its shortcomings when used in mobile learning; then, following the design ideas and principles of MLMCE, we revise and improve XAHM by five-level domain model structure , learning a single model of no knowledge only learning model and two-staged adaptive mechanism, and give the architecture of MLMCE from the perspectives adaptive ;(6) This study take college English vocabulary mobile learning system as an example and explained the design from MLMCE in detail.
