Why each option
A list tracking tasks assigned to team members is an action item log, which records discrete work items, their owners, and completion status.
A project schedule is a time-based plan that shows task sequences, durations, dependencies, and milestones - it is a more comprehensive planning artifact than a simple tracking list.
A project charter is a high-level authorization document that defines project objectives, scope, and the project manager's authority - it does not track individual team member work items.
An action item log is a project document used to capture and track specific tasks assigned to team members, including the owner, due date, and current status of each item. It is designed for ongoing operational tracking of work in progress, which matches the project coordinator's described list exactly. Unlike a project schedule, it focuses on discrete action items rather than a sequenced delivery timeline.
A work breakdown structure is a hierarchical decomposition of project deliverables into manageable components and does not track who is working on specific tasks or their current status.
