The present paper investigated major reasons behind the failure of an effective technologization of schools and universities in Algeria. It also tackled the issue of teacher-student rapport in an era where the internet has become a rival for teachers. This work questioned the factors contributing to the failure of a successful integration of new technologies in Algerian classrooms. Field observations were required to collect data; four primary schools (private and public, two middle schools), two secondary schools and four universities were the fieldwork of this study. Also, as a case study, I lastly presented my personal experience in technologizing my classes as a university teacher. The results showed that social, cultural, economic and educational factors were behind the failure of a successful integration of ICTs in Algerian classrooms. Moreover, I emphasized that the teacher-learner rapport is in jeopardy because of the chaotic and ineffective penetration of new technological tools in the Algerian classroom.
