This paper discusses the application value of the writing teaching mode combined with the mixed teaching mode in college English writing teaching against the background of big data. Focusing on production-oriented approach (POA) theory, this paper proposes a mixed learning writing model for English teaching and applies the POA mixed learning English writing teaching model to practical teaching by using the cloud classroom platform, collecting students' big data, and analyzing students' seriousness, classroom participation, satisfaction, and English writing performance. Although the overall student engagement is not high, their classroom satisfaction is very high. Research shows that after the teacher adjusted the lesson plan and encouraged students to participate more in class interactions, their scores improved in the second exam but declined in the third exam . The levels of engagement, participation, and satisfaction have significantly decreased across all grades. The POA combined with the blended learning mode has a great application value in practical teaching in the era of big data.
