Lambda code works on node v8.10 but not nodejs v10.x

Question

I am working through a lambda course which was done using v8.10. I am trying to use nodejs v10.x since that is what I want to use for my project in the future.

I am not understanding why the "const uuid = require('uuid');" line is throwing an import error only in nodejs v10 but in v8.10 the code runs just fine.

Code:

const aws = require('aws-sdk');
const s3 = new aws.S3();
const uuid = require('uuid');

exports.handler = async (event) => {
    console.log("Get the event to our S3POC class - " + JSON.stringify(event));

    const newUUID = uuid.v4();

    console.log("The file name is:" + newUUID);

    //put our sentence into the s3 bucket
    return s3.putObject({
        Bucket: "helloworld-s3.arkhadbot.com",
        Key: "test" + ".json"
    });
};

Error

As per accepted answer, it's now required that lambda won't have third party support directly. (because Node 8 version is deprecated now which might've still accepted).

const aws = require('aws-sdk');
const s3 = new aws.S3();
// const uuid = require('uuid'); comment this out

exports.handler = async (event, context) => {
    console.log("Get the event to our S3POC class - " + JSON.stringify(event));

    // const newUUID = context.awsRequestId();
    const newUUID = context.awsRequestId;

    console.log("The file name is:" + newUUID);

    //put our sentence into the s3 bucket
    return s3.putObject({
        Bucket: "helloworld-s3.arkhadbot.com",
        Key: "test" + ".json"
    });
};

AWS Request IDs might look like so: requestId: 'daf9dc5e-1628-4437-9e2d-2998efaa73b4'
