Sarah Levine
Lecturer, Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP)BioI am the executive director of the Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP). Our STEP faculty and staff prepare teachers for leadership in and beyond the classroom. Teachers learn to help their students develop knowledge, skills, and sense of self and community as we work to understand the connections between culture, teaching, and learning.
Before pursuing an academic career, I taught secondary English at a Chicago public school for ten years. While there, I founded and ran a youth radio program that used digital audio production as a tool to help make writing and analysis relevant and real-world for students, and to build bridges between in- and out-of-school worlds.
My research focuses on the teaching and learning of literary interpretation and writing in under-resourced high schools, with an emphasis on the links between in- and out-of-school interpretive practices. I am also interested in ways that AI and digital media (for example, natural language processing models like ChatGPT; visual representations of text like word clouds; and radio production) can be used as frameworks for teaching reading and writing to middle and high school students. -

Katerina Levinson
Postdoctoral Scholar, Iberian & Latin American Cultures
BioKaterina Levinson is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Iberian and Latin American Cultures at Stanford. She received her BA in Spanish and Great Texts (Baylor University), and a Masters in Spanish literature (University of Oxford). She completed her D.Phil from the University of Oxford in Medieval and Modern Languages (Spanish), which draws from research she conducted in Spain. Her doctoral thesis is entitled, "Iconographic Strength: Female Agency through Immaculist Devotion in Calderón’s Marian Autos Sacramentales." Her doctoral research elucidates early modern feminism through a historical, philosophical, and textual framework. Through analysis of the iconographic association of women with Mary's warrior prowess in the conquest of evil, her thesis argues that Calderón complicates notions of gendered virtue by applying virtues to women that were traditionally understood to be reserved for men. She previously held appointments as a Lecturer in ILAC at Stanford and as Stipendiary Lecturer of Medieval Spanish at St. Anne's College, Oxford.
Her current research investigates the promotion of female authority in colonial drama and poetry. Drawing on the intersection of religion, visual art, and literature, she examines how Marian narratives in the Americas functioned as a vehicle for elevating women within the colonial sphere, revealing the ways in which devotional discourse became a site of female agency and cultural negotiation. Her primary research interests lie in early modern Hispanic drama and poetry, Mariology, moral philosophy and literature, women and gender, early modern sensory perception. -
