They demonstrate how effective, contextual teacher training can be a cornerstone of educational justice, which occurs when all learners are supported to be successful in school and when schools expand notions of success to include diverse ways of life and learning. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The authors show how this new framework, which draws from behavioral, cognitive, humanistic, and critical models of coaching, can be used in professional and informal learning contexts, and in dialogue with families and communities, to upend the status quo, break down the expert-novice distinction, and cultivate just forms of practice. As they note, the work of justice is collaborative, sustained engagement in resistance to marginalization, racism, and other inequities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Coaching in Communities presents a set of tools, including shared inquiry and coaching cycles of observation, reflection, and debriefing, and demonstrates how they work in real-life settings. With these tools, teacher education programs as well as districts, schools, and other organizations can train for change, which is one essential step in school transformation.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMelissa Mosley Wetzel\u003c\/b\u003e is professor and department chair of language and literacy studies in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at the University of Texas at Austin. \u003cb\u003eErica Holyoke \u003c\/b\u003eis an assistant professor of responsive literacy education in the School of Education and Human Development at the University of Colorado Denver. \u003cb\u003eKerry H.
