I believe the answer is:

recap

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'form of summary' is the definition.
(I know that recap is a type of capitulation)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for recap that I've seen before include "cover the same ground again" , "Quickly run through" , "Summarise briefly (abbr)" , "Run through again (Inf)" , "play again" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
