Wow. I'm flummoxed. Sounds like you need a drawing program of some sort. Why don't you contact TUAW and ask them this question. They would probably love to research it for you.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Hil,
What about the ipad app "Explain Everything?"

Hmm. That looks like it might work. I'll play around with it some and see what it'll do. Thanks! (And actually, even if it doesn't work quite right for this, I can see several other things that I think I could use it for.)

Yeah, I was running around evernote website and I saw this and thought this might be what you needed.

Depending on exactly what it can do (I'll have to play around and test out the features), and whether campus tech ever fixes the projector in my classroom, this could be the solution to several of my "I wish I could do that, but I'd need a SmartBoard" problems.

After playing around with it some, it looks like it won't do the overlays that I wanted (or, at least, not in any way that I can figure out), but it does enough other stuff that I think I can work around that.

Hil,
I wonder if you could have someone draw, upload that picture to dropbox/evernote, then import the pic back to put on top the original figure using this app or another picture app.

That would work, but I think it would take too long. If I'm doing the overlays, I want it to be instant -- draw the derivative, then compare it to the actual derivative graph. I'm going to be doing a whole bunch of them in a row, with different students taking turns, and importing and exporting like that would be too long a delay. I can have them draw on one slide, then the next slide shows the actual derivative graph, and just go back and forth between them to compare them.

Explain Everything is being a bit buggy when I try to import a separate PDF file for each slide. Is there a free way to take multiple PDF files and make them into one file, with each page being one of the original ones?
