Updated: 25 October 2022

INTRODUCTION

The Capstone Project Course is unlike most other SUSS courses in that you will not be swamped with literature (no specialist course notes, media material etc). It is essential that you plan your project carefully as time and resources are not to be wasted. From a rather sketchy idea of what you think you want to do; you have to produce a well-reasoned and well-researched project. This is a daunting task, but with clear aims and self-discipline you will find the experience both rewarding and fascinating. Capstone project is a Level 4 course, and it is regarded as the summit or apex of your undergraduate degree studies. In it we expect you to integrate the concepts you have learned in past courses and apply them to a significant real world problem. This handbook aims to provide you with advice on how to go about the various stages of your project and also includes information on the formal academic reporting system you have to comply with. This course uses a key skills framework to help you tackle your project. The framework is to help you develop your communication skills, and monitor, assess and review your own performance during the year. More details about the key skills approach are given in Section 1 0. You will be working independently. Rather than being one of a large supervision group, you will be known personally to your supervisor. You will meet your supervisor at regular intervals over two semesters, including the month(s) between these semesters. Your supervisor will be the main source of guidance in your area of specialized investigation work.

The main aims of the Capstone Project may be summarized as follows:  To provide an opportunity for you to draw together and integrate the knowledge you have gained and skills you have developed in other courses from the degree programme in which you are currently pursuing.  To give you an opportunity for independent study, and to develop an ability to organize work with a view to achieving a clearly specified goal (for example to complete a simulation model, write a piece of interface software, build/test an integrated electronic system, execute a product design, or design an information system). It is essential that students should choose project areas relevant to the degree specialisation in which they have chosen and not in areas unrelated to the degree programme curriculum.  To develop skills in some combination of design, electronics, materials/mechanical engineering and mathematical/computer simulation analysis as an integrative activity appropriate to Electronic Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Information and Communications Technology, Multimedia, Mathematics, Aerospace Engineering and other honours programmes at the School of Science and Technology and in the presentation of an account of the work in written and oral form.  To undertake an academic project based on sound technological principles and scientific reasoning. It is not just the production of a descriptive technical report.

1 TIMETABLE

The timetable alongside with dates of project workshops as indicated by week number on the course schedule are printed separately, but have been posted on the Canvas sites. The guidelines to the stages of the project are given in Section 2. The first and last workshops are compulsory. (If they are available) Notice that there are a number of fixed points in the course schedule. These meetings and deadlines are to assist you in pacing your work, and to enable your supervisor to watch your progress throughout the year. It is in your own interests to submit the project proposal and project report on time, and to attend the associated face-to-face supervisions where arranged between you and your supervisor. The only flexible dates in the timetable are the dates of face-to-face supervisions. Your supervisor has been asked to arrange them near the dates shown, but may alter them or add extra supervisions to suit your particular project. Your relationship with your supervisor should be viewed as critical in moulding your project. Do not ignore advice on structure or content without good reason from your supervisor. It is important for you to be in close communication with your supervisor over the entire period of your project. It is particularly important that you should meet the cut-off date for submission of your project report, because the project report has to be read and assessed by both your supervisor and examiner before the poster presentation day. Students who do not submit by the stipulated deadline will be automatically extended by 6 months, with grade penalty and fees charged. The grade will be deducted by 5 marks (or equivalent to 0) and a fee of $5 50 * will be charged for the 6-month extension. (* This fee is subject to revision)

2 STUDY PROGRAMME

Your first formal meeting with your supervisor will take place in the early part of the first semester of your project. This meeting is the start of the course and you will discuss your project in detail and consider how it is to be tackled, culminating in the successful completion of your PROJECT PROPOSAL. Your supervisor will want you to outline the broad strategy, to assess your strengths and weaknesses and to agree a preliminary reading list (literature survey or other information sources). In general, projects for this Capstone Course are expected to include both investigative and integrative elements of the proposed project work. At this first meeting, you may also decide how future contacts are to be made, by telephone, SMS messaging, email; or at face-to-face supervisions. After this first meeting, you should record the criteria and targets you have agreed with your supervisor, the skills you will need to achieve them, an assessment of your strengths and weaknesses and your priorities for the first stage of the project, all to be included in your meeting minutes. You are to record all capstone matters discussed with your supervisor after every meeting in a meeting log and send a copy to your supervisor. Your supervisor will be able to see your meeting log to ensure the accuracy of the matters discussed during every meeting with him/her. Upon the school requests, you have to submit a copy of all meeting logs. It is compulsory for you to have regular meet ups with your assigned supervisors.

By the middle of your first semester, you should be well under way with the opening stages of your project. These depend to some extent on the investigative method you are using. They will normally include searching the literature, making preliminary enquiries and preparing work outlines for a PROJECT PROPOSAL. During this period, you can expect supervision help specifically directed to this kind of preparation. After marking your Project Proposal, your supervisor will normally hold another meeting, using your Project Proposal to develop a strategy for the main project report. The major work of your project takes place between mid of 1st semester to later part of 2nd semester. During this long period, you may expect supervision support by any of the routes mentioned above, depending on circumstances. Specific details of the requirements for the Project Proposal are given in Section 7. We also require you to keep a project log during the year. This is a common practice among most researchers, and serves as a collection of sketches, schematics, ideas, calculations, notes, and so forth, that you might have during the project. You are highly recommended to get an A4-sized notebook and use it continuously to document your progress as well as failures – this should be checked against your weekly objectives and should contain details of what you have learned and the time you have taken. Your supervisor may ask you to submit a monthly summary based on the log. These are not assessed, but give the supervisor and student a very good idea of what is happening and whether the project is progressing to the schedule agreed between them. You should include provision for this in your project plan. You will find it useful when you come to write your project report, and it could come in handy at the poster presentation day if you are asked questions about the progress of the project.

3 HEALTH AND SAFETY

Some projects related to a student's work may have implications under MOH (Ministry of Health) regulations. Both the employer and the employee have a duty to ensure that, as far as is reasonably practicable, they do not put themselves at risk whilst carrying investigation work to fulfill the requirements of the course. SUSS cannot authorize any risky and unsafe activity that you may undertake at your place of work. If your project will involve any such activities you should already have discussed this with your employer and provided a statement on your employer's headed notepaper, signed by your manager or other responsible person, to the effect that:  your employer agrees to your use of any equipment and/or facilities;  your employer will not hold SUSS or its full or part-time supervisors liable for any loss or damage that may occur as a result of your investigations carried out in the project work. In addition, and even if you are carrying out all your project work at home, you must consider the safety aspects of any work you do. You should discuss health and safety with your supervisor at the first supervision. You will be required to prepare a written risk assessment, identifying the risks involved in the proposed activities and what steps will be taken to eliminate or minimize them. If the work involves any hazardous substances, then a written safety assessment by the sponsoring laboratory/company where the chemicals are used must be obtained from the laboratory manager/supervisor. The assessment should be signed and dated and form part of the documentation of the project (in the Project Report).

5 YOUR SUPPORT SYSTEM

You are by now quite familiar with the regular mailings, broadcasts and continuous assessment of other undergraduate courses. You may need to consult your supervisor about any difficulties that emerge from your reading of this Course Handbook. SUSS provides investigation/measurement facilities in the form of a number of laboratories located on Levels 3 to 5 at Block C. The software available includes:- a) LABVIEW Professional (Development Version) b) MATLAB with a full-range of toolboxes c) ELVIS prototyping system d) VICON motion capture system with MAYA animation which we can use for multimedia, biomedical as well as electronics e) Gtech for measurements of EEG/EMG - for electronics and biomedical f) Quanser Control System for biomechanics and electronics g) 6 - DOF Haptic Robot for electronics, biomedical h) MIMICS for rapid prototyping/materials design i) Prime 3 Computer Algebra Software Please contact your respective Head of Programme for a detailed list of available research measurement and modeling tools. In the Capstone Project Course, the programme of study is largely in your own hands. The university's obligation is twofold:  to give you the best possible support;  to see that your work is properly assessed. It is impossible to separate support from assessment, because your supervisor and SUSS are interested in both. Your supervisor will be your immediate point of contact for all academic problems. He or she will decide whether to call in help from the Head of Programme. We are conscious of the remoteness and isolation you will experience and have, therefore, devised a system of checks to monitor your progress. The examiner reads and assesses the project report and assesses your poster presentation at the end of the course. The BME499, EAS499, ENG499, ICT499, MTD499 and MTH499 Capstone Project Courses are administered by a faculty member, with the help of the School of Science & Technology Administration as well as the Examinations and Assignments (EA) Department of SUSS. This team monitors the presentation of this course each semester, and looks at ways in which it might be improved. The Course Chair is responsible for the appointment of your supervisor and will keep an eye on your progress through the course.

6 ASSESSMENT

The assessment of projects will be based on the following components and weightings:

• Project Proposal 1 0%
• Interim Report 10%
• Project Report 4 0%
• Oral Presentation 2 0%
• Questions and Answers 20% The assessors of these components will be:
• Project Proposal — supervisor ( 1 0%)
• Interim Report — supervisor (10%)
• Project Report — supervisor (10%) and examiner (30%)
• Oral Presentation — supervisor (10%) and examiner (10%)
• Questions and Answers — supervisor (10%) and examiner (10%) Based on the Gantt chart in the Project Proposal, your supervisor will track your progress at the end of the first semester of your project. Students who are behind schedule by 8 weeks or more will be sent a warning letter. These students will then need to submit to their supervisors a rescheduled Gantt chart that is realistic to their supervisor, and must adhere to the rescheduled time line. When a student cannot follow their proposed Gantt chart in Project Proposal by the end of their first semester, their slow progress will be taken into consideration for the final marks. Each student is required to keep a meeting log after every meeting with their supervisor and send the meeting log to their supervisor the following day. At the end of the two semesters, students should have accumulated a minimum of 10 meeting logs. The University will randomly select students throughout the Capstone project period. Students will have to submit them to [email protected] within a week. Each meeting log should include:
• Date, venue and time (state the duration) of the meeting
• Matters discussed, and
• Decisions made. To gain at least a PASS you will have to:
• Achieve at least 40% for the aggregate of Project Proposal and Interim Report (if you do not achieve this, then you are deemed to have failed),
• Achieve at least 40% for the total marks of Project Report, Poster presentation and Q&A
• Attendance at the poster presentation, which is compulsory All marks contribute to a single final rank score, from which a Letter Grade will be awarded as Course Result. The Letter Grade System will be used as you will graduate with a SUSS Degree.

PART 2: INVESTIGATION OF PROJECT BACKGROUND (40%)

This will vary, depending on the investigative method being used. For instance, in strongly client-orientated investigations in the project areas of Design or Systems, it may well include investigations of client requirements and context. It will almost always include a critical appraisal of any background literature you have found to be important in formulating and developing your project. It should also relate the topic clearly to existing similar work, where appropriate, and build on concepts and principles you have learned in other SUSS courses. This section is allocated the most marks, reflecting the importance that this aspect will represent in your project report. PART 3: PROJECT PLAN (30%) This should include a diagram - a Gantt chart, matching the specific tasks to be completed in your project against the time available. There are many useful open source tools which can help you to create the Gantt chart and use it for tracking throughout the project phase. Steps in creating a project plan:- a. Identify the main phases in your project b. In each phase, identify the tasks required c. Estimate the effort for each task. Effort is expressed in hours d. Include exam revision week, plan the schedule for the whole project e. Conclude the total effort required for your project in man-days (one man-days = 6 hours) In addition, you should conduct a risk assessment and; report on the risks identified and the mitigation steps to be taken to ensure a successful project. You should also consider the resources required for successful completion of the project, e. information or access to equipment and facilities. Be as specific as possible and state the position regarding agreements that have been reached about use of facilities, and so on. You should explain why you have created the plan in the way you have. 7.1 WRITING OF PROJECT PROPOSAL This Project Proposal should be about 3 000 words long. Your supervisor's comments written on the report will be reinforced in the subsequent supervision. Your supervisor will be looking for the following:  references studied, with comments as to their relevance;  your understanding of the basic principles underlying the project;  identification of a definite topic and relation to existing similar work;  specification of the goals of the project;  outline of a strategy for achieving these goals. Throughout the report your supervisor will be looking for a critical and analytical approach to the problem being investigated. Be careful that in your enthusiasm you do not lose sight of the aims of the Capstone Project Course and the objectives of your project. It is important that you include as much detail as possible in your Project Proposal, to enable your supervisor to give you guidance and advice. It may be that as a result of the submission of this Project Proposal you will have to revise the aims and methodology of your project, and in this respect it is crucial to consider your supervisor's advice very carefully.

7. 2 INTERIM REPORT

This report should be presented under three headings. PART 1: PROGRESS SINCE THE PROJECT PROPOSAL REPORT ( 4 0%) This section should contain a brief statement of the following elements:

• A restatement of the project objective: has the objective changed or been developed since the submission of the Project Proposal? If it has not changed or developed, state why it has stayed the same.
• Your progress: use the criteria you recorded in your Project Proposal report to judge your performance and progress. You should: (a) review the targets you have set yourself; (b) identify what you have achieved so far and where you may need to focus your efforts; (c) state what action you have taken in response to your tutor's comments on your work; (d) record any new targets you have agreed for the next stage.
• Problems and successes: a comment on the successes of the project so far and/or any practical problems that have arisen and how they were tackled;
• A critical assessment of any further literature you have read, or a reinterpretation of some of the material you presented in the Project Proposal report, in the light of further experience;
• Project plan. Refer back to the plan you proposed in your Project Proposal report. How successful has it been? Explain the reasons for any changes you have made. Summarize the tasks you have to complete in the time remaining. PART 2: DRAFT CHAPTER (40%) In general, the draft chapter should indicate your grasp of the method(s) of investigation you are using in your project, though the most appropriate way to do this may vary with the investigative strategy being employed. Discuss with your tutor how best to do this. In many projects, it will be appropriate for the chapter to be a presentation of the theoretical background you are using, the methodological options that were available to you, the methods you are actually planning to use, and your interpretation of any findings to date in the light of the literature you have studied so far. However, in projects with a strongly iterative element (commonly the case in projects using systems or design methods) it will often be much more appropriate for this chapter to be a presentation of your first iteration through the method (showing the output at each stage), your rationale for approaching it in this way, and your reflections on your first attempt. Treat this as though it were a chapter in your project report, (although remember that it is a draft, and can be amended or replaced later if necessary) so make sure you read the notes on style and presentation in Section 8. If you submit a draft chapter on literature review or just a summary on different sections of the proposed project report, NO MARKS will be awarded.

8 Project Report

8 components and marking.

The Project Report is a very important element in the course and accounts for 4 0% of the total marks available for the course. Your supervisor and the examiner both mark your report, but you will not receive any feedback until the presentation day. The Course Team's recommended marking schedule for the project report is shown below. The project report is a composite document with two distinct parts. You are also provided with guidelines for the project report, which includes a brief description within each section of what should or should not be included in the respective section. The guidelines document is uploaded to Canvas – you may use that as your starting point, and modify accordingly as your project requires. Other samples of contents for your project report are provided below and at the end of this document. PART 1 TECHNICAL REPORT The first, and major, part is a technical report on your work. This should be written in a form suitable for publication to inform others working in the same area about your work. It should be about 7500 words in length, excluding appendixes. Further guidance is given below in sub-section 8. The general mark allocation for a typical report might be: Design 2 0% A critical analysis and explanation of the project and clarification of its goals and the production of evidence showing that a computer model, a mathematical model or a system prototype (could be a mix of hardware/software) has been constructed. Conduct of the technical investigations and experiments 3 0% Integration of technological and scientific understanding in achieving the aims of the project. Show how a design is tested, and how the results will be evaluated in the light of suitable established performance metrics. Literature Review 10% Independent reading and study, and critical use of literature in discussing the findings of the project to solve project problem. Ability to demonstrate use of referencing in literature review. Project management 10% Organization of work and of component activities of the project with an understanding of how modern engineering project management techniques are used in the project work. Report Writing 10% Conciseness and clarity of presentation of the report and the quality of the language used as well as that of the clarity of diagrams/drawings. Overall, this part will carry 8 0% of the marks for the project report. The project report must be written in reported speech.

PART 2 CRITICAL REVIEW AND REFLECTIONS

The second part of the project report is a critical review of the process you have been engaged in as you tackled your project and what you have learnt in doing it. It should be 500 words in length and should not have any appendixes other than diary summaries. This section gives you an opportunity to gain credit for otherwise non-assessed parts of your work. An important part of your review is to provide an account, based on your meeting logs, reports, plans, logbook and any other notes you have made, of how your skills have developed over the project. You should refer back to the criteria and targets you set at the beginning of the project, and assess your performance and progress against these. Comment on how you tackled the skills you identified as being weaker, and what you did to adapt your learning in response to your supervisor's comments. You will find more details about what you should include in your review in Section 1 0. It is important that as well as your successes, you record your failures; that is, the dead ends or false trails. Explain the reasons for the failures and why they were not predicted. Some of this may appear in your technical report. You must decide the balance between the two parts. One of the aims of the course is to teach you how to do a project. Some students may not reach a definite outcome, such as a solution to a problem or a working model. They may nevertheless have learned just as much, if not more, than those who do. Unless you record the whole progress of your project, the examiners will be unable to tell what you have learned. Keeping a project diary from the initiation of your project is a good way of recording events and reflections. It will provide the basic material from which to construct this part of the report. This part will carry 10 % of the marks for the project report. ORIGINAL AND IMAGINATIVE WORK The marking scheme for the two parts outlined above account for 90% of the marks available for the project report. The remaining 10% of the marks are awarded for reports that demonstrate a thorough grasp of underlying principles and their application to the project topic in an original or imaginative way. These marks are available to all students, as it is recognized that these qualities may be present in reports which for other reasons will not score high marks. They will be awarded by the markers on the bases of their overall impression of the report. REVIEW OF WORKING MATERIALS During your project you should be prepared to pass to your supervisor for review any working materials you have developed. A supervisor may call for material to provide evidence of claims you make in your reports; such as a request to see a questionnaire, interview notes, detailed calculations, or a project diary. Some of your working materials may usefully be included in appendixes to your project report to illustrate key points. However, you should beware of creating vast detailed appendixes of photocopied articles, completed questionnaires, etc. In general, material in appendixes should illustrate, support and enhance points in the main report. The report itself should be capable of standing alone, being logically complete and making sense without the appendixes.

SENDING IN YOUR REPORT

Detailed instructions on how to submit your project report will be sent to you later in 2 nd semester of your project. Note that since this report has to be assessed prior to the presentation day, no reports will be accepted after the cut-off date of submission. For the case of late submission or non-submission, student’s project will be automatically given an in- progress status, i. an extended of 6 months, and will be charged $55 0 ** for this extension. For this case, the student’s project report submission and poster presentation will be done 6 months later together with the later batch of students. There will be a deduction of 5 marks (which is equivalent to a drop of 0 GPA) for the student’s capstone project grade. (** This fee is subjected to change). 8 STRUCTURE OF PART 1 OF YOUR PROJECT REPORT CONTENTS OF PART 1 The exact structure of your report will depend on various factors, including the investigative method employed. This is certainly an area you should discuss with your supervisor. A typical Capstone Project report would have the following sections:  Title page  Abstract  Acknowledgments  Table of Contents  List of Figures (if applicable)  List of Tables (if applicable)  List of Symbols (if applicable)  Introduction  Literature Review  Aims and Objectives  Main text and discussion (usually several sections, each with a title relevant to the context of your particular project)  Conclusions and recommendations  Reflection  References  Appendixes, including any risk assessment  Glossary (if applicable) ABSTRACT You must include an abstract with your report. The abstract may be as brief as 200-250 words and should never be more than one side of A4. It should fulfill two purposes:  it should provide a general picture of the report and its contents for someone who has not yet read the report itself, but who, as a result of reading the abstract, may subsequently wish to do so;  it should also serve as a useful aide-memoire for someone who has read the report but wishes to have an overview readily available. The range of projects on the Capstone Project Course makes it impossible to be prescriptive about the content and style of an abstract. Indeed, there is no agreed standard layout, but students should be aware of the purposes outlined above and structure the abstract accordingly.

The abstract should therefore:  say something about project objectives and methodology adopted;  include any necessary background information;  comment on any findings or results;  emphasize any major conclusions;  have a value as a stand-alone document, giving enough information for the reader to understand what the project has all been about. In other words, the abstract must be concise, self-contained and self-explanatory. INTRODUCTION AND AIMS The introduction should explain the content of your project, placing it in the context of other relevant work in the field. This should be followed by a formal statement of the aims of your work. MAIN TEXT AND DISCUSSION The main text consists of one or more sections covering procedure, experimental work, data collections, tabulated or summarized results and an analysis of the accuracy and significance of the results. In subdividing your sections into a more detailed structure, there are two major factors to consider:

• the coherence and logic of the argument;
• a strategy for capturing the reader's interest. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The final conclusion and recommendations sum up your achievements and failures and point the way to future work, which could be taken up by students of the Capstone Project in future years. GLOSSARY Certain projects make extensive use of technical terminology specific to an organization or industry. Others, such as projects in engineering mechanics, use various standard and non-standard symbols and variables. In-house technical terms should be defined, and variables listed (with units and definitions), in an appendix. 8 STYLE, PRESENTATION AND DATA HANDLING This section is intended as a guide to help you in writing your project report. Within the Capstone Project Course there will be significant differences between engineering, design, or analytical reports. We do not wish to prescribe your style, but merely to affirm that a good piece of writing is easily recognized; being noteworthy, among other things, for its clarity, conciseness and orderly presentation. Above all, remember that your report should be addressed to a general but informed reader, and written so that someone else could, if necessary, continue with the work.

 The format for citing the references must be consistent. Students are advised to refer to recent project report kept in the library. THE PLACE OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS A number of projects involve some software development. At one extreme this may actually be the point of the project. At the other extreme it may be a fairly standard program that you have either written or adapted. Simple programming and data manipulation are considered as a means to an end, and details can often clutter up the text. If you have undertaken something which you consider above the ordinary, include a description of the procedure in the text and confine details of any software to an appendix. This will allow you to present your findings clearly. If, however, you have based your work on a novel mathematical model, you should describe this in the text. MEASUREMENT AND ACCURACY Where your work is based on experiments that include actual measurements made, it is necessary to give the reader some indication of the anticipated errors (in this sense, error relates to a limit in accuracy rather than a mistake). A template for your reports will be made available on Canvas, with a detailed description of what each section entails.

9 VIDEO SUMMARY, ORAL & POSTER PRESENTATIONS

9 what to expect.

In all academic, commercial or industrial employment you will find that you have to give some form of oral presentation to your colleagues as well as having to produce written reports. Additionally, as training to develop the creation of personal portfolios, you will learn how to produce a video and poster summaries of your project work. The Capstone Project Course recognizes all these needs. In this course you will be expected to write a project report, produce a video project summary and to present your work orally by giving a short illustrated talk beside a poster to both your supervisor and examiner. Besides other senior academic staff from SUSS as well as the general public may also show great interest in your work and request for an oral account of your project work. Presentation day will take place a few weeks after the cut-off date for submission of your project report. You will be able to use this time to prepare for your presentation. You should not let the need to prepare your talk influence the quality of your written project report. This will normally take place in November (for projects starting in Jan of the same year) or May (for projects staring in July of previous year). The School will write to you in 2 nd semester through MyMail as well as posting an announcement on Canvas to inform you of the venue and date for the poster presentation. Attendance at the poster presentation in person is compulsory. Failure to attend the poster presentation constitutes to an overall FAIL grade in THE CAPSTONE PROJECT COURSE. The poster presentation serves as training for THE CAPSTONE PROJECT COURSE students to practise the presentation of technical project work in front of an audience, which is frequently required in professional engineering work. In exceptional circumstances, the poster presentation might be conducted by a video conference or other means if, for example, a student is disabled in a way (due to severe illness) which prevents attendance at presentation day in person. 9 Video, Poster and Powerpoint Slides Using your poster and powerpoint slides as visual aids, you will prepare a talk on your work for the Capstone Project Course. After your talk, be prepared to answer questions for ten minutes. The length of your talk is important; you should keep it to about 15 minutes. Your supervisor will be able to give you some help in preparing your illustrated talk. Do not attempt to get too much information over in such a short time. You will need to mention the scope, outcomes, successes and failures of your project and any significant learning experiences during your year with the Capstone Project Course. Your poster design should follow the Poster Design template given in Canvas, including the background color. Additionally, you must submit a short video summary (as an *.mp4 file) describe the problem you are trying to solve, the methods/approaches used to solve the problem as well as an evaluation/reflection of how successful the problem solution process had been for you. This video summary should be approximately 10 minute duration and submitted at the same time as the hard copies of the project report. You will need to upload this onto the Capstone link on the CANVAS system. The video summary will be assessed alongside the poster presentation. Only students admitted to the Capstone Course from January 2018 onwards need to submit the video summary.
