Which term is a written record of the discussions and decisions made during a meeting?

• A. Action Items
• B. Project Organization Communication
• C. Weekly Updates
• D. Meeting Minutes

Answer: (D)

A written record of the discussions and decisions made during a meeting is called meeting minutes. Minutes capture what was discussed, what decisions were made or approved, and any follow-up actions, including who is responsible and when deadlines are due. They also note who attended and when the meeting happened. This creates an official reference that helps everyone stay aligned, lets absent team members catch up, and provides a basis for accountability and future review of what was agreed. While action items are the tasks assigned during the meeting, weekly updates are periodic status reports, and project organization communication refers to the broader way information flows within the project—minutes specifically document the actual meeting events and outcomes.
