Recent advances in biology and digital technology represent unique opportunities for teacher educators to rethink the programmatic experiences of prospective secondary science and mathematics teachers. This article discusses the importance of teacher education programs that connect mathematics and science where appropriate, recognize the hybridization of science, and integrate biological and digital features into program learning experiences. In addition, recommendations for incorporating these design features into teacher education are offered.
