Charles Allen Brown studies English language teaching (ELT) materials and policies in East Asia, particularly Japan and Taiwan, focusing on how textbooks, media, and institutional practices convey implicit or 'hidden' messages about age, sexuality, culture, and social groups. His work also examines internationalization efforts at universities, teacher professional development, and biases in language-learning technologies like search engines. Much of this research applies critical analysis to visual and textual materials used in English education.
Publication output has grown over the past decade, rising from about 1-2 papers per year in 2017-2021 to 3-4 per year in 2023-2025.
