Biography:

Dr. Jaqueline McLeod Rogers is a feminist scholar with a long-term commitment to developing and promoting writing- and language-based education courses responsive to issues of culture and place. Her course “Composing Winnipeg: Rhetorics of/and the City” deals with place-making practices, diversity, mobilities, and the tenacity of a localized “sense of place” that thrives even as it adjusts to the global flow of people and things.

Many of her research projects are collaborative. She co-edited a collection of essays examining technologies in domestic space, Mothering/Internet/Kids. (with F. Green, Demeter Press 2022); she is currently co-writing a textbook to teach academic writing, Write to Engage (with H. Lepp Friesen and A. McGillivray, Broadview Press, forthcoming).

She has published several volumes exploring McLuhan and contemporary communication theory and practice. Recently, she published McLuhan’s Techno-Sensorium City: Coming to Ours Senses in a Programmed Environment (Lexington, 2020), a book that considers McLuhan as activist and speculative urbanist. Her new book is Crises Then As Now: McLuhan with Urbanist Jaqueline Tyrwhitt and Artist Gyorgy Kepes (2025, Peter Lang). It explores how anthropocentric crises is a generational burden and how there may be some transfer between solutions proposed mid-century and now.
